A Paradise Lost: The Neo-Romantic Imagination in Britain 1935 – 55

Important yet neglected artists, such as John Minton, John Craxton, Leslie Hurry and Cecil Collins – the young romantics of the 40s – together with more celebrated painters such as Graham Sutherland and John Piper are re-assessed in Dr Mellor’s text. Many rarely seen paintings, together with photographs, book jacket designs and film stills are illustrated too.
