The Art of William Nicholson

This book accompanies the first full retrospective devoted to Sir William Nicholson (1872-1949) in more than 20 years. It features the broadest display of his painting ever published in color-including the informal still-lifes, understated portraits, and strikingly "minimalist" landscapes for which he has long been admired-as well as catalogue entries and texts by leading specialists on his work. AUTHOR BIO: Colin Campbell and Sanford Schwartz have both written monographs on Nicholson. Merlin James is a regular contributor to Burlington Magazine and the TLS. Patricia Reed is writing the artist's catalogue raisonné.
