Description
The Works of Samuel Palmer by Colin Harrison Discover the art of Samuel Palmer, a 20th-century artist whose work was largely unknown to the general public until a retrospective exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1926. This groundbreaking show revealed the unique world of Palmer's early years at Shoreham, showcasing his haunting self-portraits and evocative landscapes. Palmer's influence on English art is undeniable, with many notable artists, including Nash, Sutherland, John Piper, and F.L. Griggs, drawing inspiration from his work. The Ashmolean Museum collection is the most important in the world, featuring a rich array of paintings, drawings, watercolors, and etchings that provide a unique insight into Palmer's artistic development. This book presents the full range of Palmer's works, with particular emphasis on his early Shoreham period pieces, including the iconic self-portrait and the six sepia drawings from 1825.
