PayPal accepted, any questions please get in touch.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eMore about Arthur Rackham's Book of Pictures\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nWith his distinctive blend of humor and romance, English illustrator Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) recaptured scenes from a thrilling fairy tale world -- a realm shadowed by danger, yet suffused with a sense of sweetness and light. His images enjoyed both popular and critical success, conveying a mood of joy and wonder in a style that has influenced generations of children and artists. This splendid survey of Rackham's early, pre-World War II work features 44 color plates in addition to several black-and-white vignettes and spot illustrations.\r\n\r\nThe images consist of the goblins, giants, elves, fairies, and other grotesque and fantastic creatures that Rackham depicted so well. Fanciful scenes portray characters from familiar fairy tales -- Jack and the Beanstalk, the Frog Prince, Puss in Boots, and the Snow Queen -- as well as folkloric figures such as Jack Frost and Mother Goose and idealized portraits of Edwardian-era children. This volume includes many long-unavailable works that are not to be found elsewhere. Brief captions identify the source of each image.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nMore books by Arthur Rackham \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/arthur-rackham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\r\n\r\nMore book by Heinemann \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_publisher\/heinemann\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Arthur Rackham","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580081909969,"sku":"SBID_00008562","price":950.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/arthur-rackham-arthur-rackhams-book-of-picture.jpg?v=1639120672"},{"product_id":"a-book-by-anselm-kiefer","title":"A Book by Anselm Kiefer","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression from 1988 in fine condition, no markings pages clean, binding firm, the slipcase is also fine, please see pics, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anselm kiefer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580207411409,"sku":"SBID_00009977","price":85.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/9977_0.jpg?v=1639121241"},{"product_id":"works-and-texts","title":"Works and Texts","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression from 1992 in fine condition, flat signed by tom Phillips to title page, no markings, pages clean, binding firm, jacket in removable protective sleeve, please see pics, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tom Phillips","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580207935697,"sku":"SBID_00010104","price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/10104_0.jpg?v=1639121306"},{"product_id":"buon-fresco","title":"Buon Fresco","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression large format paperback (no hardback issued) in new condition signed and numbered 654\/1000 by Tacita Dean to title page, no markings, this is a brand new book, please see pics, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tacita Dean","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580219797713,"sku":"SBID_00010979","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/10979_0.jpg?v=1639121670"},{"product_id":"recent-paintings-and-gouaches","title":"Recent Paintings and Gouaches","description":"\u003cp\u003eLarge format Exhibition catalogue from 1996 in fine condition, flat signed by Riley to title page, no markings, pages clean, binding firm, please see pics, paypal accepted, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bridget Riley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580233363665,"sku":"SBID_00012545","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/12545_0.jpg?v=1639122067"},{"product_id":"hell-sixty-five-million-years-bc-sex-death-innult-to-injury-the-chapman-family-collection","title":"Hell Sixty Five Million years BC Sex Death INnult to Injury the Chapman family collection","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst impression elaborate paperback in as new condition, signed by Jake and Dinos Chapman to title page, this catalogue was published to coincide withe the exhibition 'Explaining Christians to Dinosaurs' no markings, please see pics, paypal accepted, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dinos Chapman|Jake Chapman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580237033681,"sku":"SBID_00013022","price":85.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/13022_0.jpg?v=1639122200"},{"product_id":"mark-wallinger","title":"Mark Wallinger","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression large format paperback in fine condition, signed and inscribed 'for Paul, best wishes' by Mark Wallinger to title page, there is a small inscription to front endpage, no other markings, pages clean, binding firm, please see pics, paypal accepted, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mark wallinger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580237492433,"sku":"SBID_00013029","price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/13029_0.jpg?v=1639122226"},{"product_id":"gerald-scarfe","title":"Gerald Scarfe","description":"\u003cp\u003e2nd impression from 1982.

His parents stayed behind and died in a concentration camp in 1943. Now in his eighties, Auerbach is still producing his distinctly sculptural paintings of friends, family and surroundings in north London. Where he has made his home since the war. The art historian and curator Catherine Lampert has had unique access to the artist since 1978. When she first became one of his sitters. With an emphasis on Auerbachs own words, culled from her conversations with him and archival interviews, she provides a rare insight into his professional life, working methods and philosophy. Additionally, Auerbach reflects on the places, people and inspirations that have shaped his life. These include his experiences as a refugee child, finding his way in the London art world of the 1950s and 1960s. Also, his friendships with Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon and Leon Kossoff, among many others, and his approaches to looking and painting throughout his career. For anyone interested in how an artist approaches his craft or his method of capturing reality this is essential reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Frank Auerback \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/frank-auerbach\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Catherine lampert|frank auerbach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580269244625,"sku":"SBID_00087431","price":275.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/catherine-lampert-frank-auerbach-speaking-and-painting.jpg?v=1639124130"},{"product_id":"forty-year-sof-curwen-press","title":"Forty Years of Curwen Press","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is number 190 in an edition of 350 small format hardback books covering the art prints published by Curwen press over 40 years, the book is signed and numbered by Peter Blake on rear cover, no markings, pages clean, binding firm, the book comes in a cloth covered slipcase, please see pics, PayPal accepted, any questions please get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter blake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580269670609,"sku":"SBID_00087481","price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/17386_0.jpg?v=1639124206"},{"product_id":"paris-3","title":"Paris","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression in VG condition.

Diana and I lived at 234 Entrada Drive in January and February of 2001. These photographs are a memoir of what our eyes saw in our garden and when we walked to the Pacific Ocean. We also [rode] into the Santa Monica Mountains on our bicycles, crossing Sunset Boulevard just where it goes into Pacific Palisades. We did this every day, winding our way through more L.A. suburbia till we reached the fire trail into the mountains (where wilder animals than us live).

Auerbach is a painter who has become one of the pre-eminent artists of our age. Above all, he is widely admired for his vivid, impulsive depictions of the world around him. For instance, his is, ostensibly, a narrow world, a small area of north London where he has lived and worked for more than fifty years. But within it he achieves images of marvelous poignancy and feel. I'm hoping, Auerbach has said, to make a new thing for the world that remains in the mind like a new species of living thing.\r\n\r\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tate.org.uk\/art\/artists\/frank-auerbach-676\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAuerbach\u003c\/a\u003e, who was born in Berlin in 1931 and came to Britain when he was eight, repeatedly paints people he knows well and places he is familiar with. His drawings and paintings are strikingly immediate. Their impact has urgency. Also, they relate in various ways as much to certain preferred Old Masters as to the contemporary artists with whom he tends to be associated, notably Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud.\r\n\r\nIn conclusion, this book includes 200 color plates together with a separate reference section comprising around 900 images. In other words, Auerbach's complete works to date--many of them not previously reproduced. Writer and art historian William Feaver discusses Auerbach's work both in its immediate context and in relation to the great tradition of painting. Extensive conversations with the artist are also included.\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\nMore books by Frank Auerback \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/frank-auerbach\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\r\n\r\nMore books by Rizzoli \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_publisher\/rizzoli\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Frank auerbach|william feaver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580484989137,"sku":"SBID_00090801","price":270.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/william-feaver-frank-auerbach.jpg?v=1639127760"},{"product_id":"playing-to-the-gallery","title":"Playing to the Gallery","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst impression of Playing to the Gallery by Grayson Perry (2014) signed to the title page.
