An Exhibition of Work by Four Young British Painters: Ayrton, Minton, Scott, Vaughan (1946)

“For in the whole of British art there are insular qualities which proclaim our greatness and our weakness alike. It is essentially an intimate, linear and poetic art. It may not have the sense of glory and the monumental quality of the Renaissance art; it has none of the sensuous plastic mastery shown by the French. But it has a constant virtue which the work of these four young painters again reflects.” Scarce three panel folded sheet catalogue for an Arts Council show of work by Michael Ayrton, John Minton, William Scott, and Keith Vaughan. Includes short biographies and lists of exhibits. 26 items listed. Condition: fine.
