Description

Clare Leighton was one of the finest engravers of the twentieth century. In the 1930s, she turned her creativity to the land, settling in the countryside with her partner and finding solace in gardening.

Gardening became an all-consuming passion for Clare, as she observed the seasonal changes in the garden and grew familiar with its wildlife and character. This connection fed her work as an artist, contributing to some of the happiest years of her life. The result is a beautifully illustrated account of the garden she created from meadowland.

Illustrated with Clare's own engravings, this book offers a unique glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who found inspiration in the natural world.
