British Romantic Artists (John Piper) (1946)

In original dust-jacket.  Piper’s passionate defence of the Romantic English tradition. ‘Romantic art deals with the particular.  The particularization of Bewick about a bird’s wing, of Turner about a waterfall or a hill town, or of Rossetti abouth Elizabeth Siddall, is the result of a vision that can see in these things something significant beyond ordinary significance’.  Condition: Very good in sligthly worn dust-wrapper.
