Gathers etchings, block prints, watercolors, and sketches by the British artist and shares his feelings about his work
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly:
Much more than a quaintly endearing portrayal of English country life, Clarke's luminous etchings, aquatints and watercolors create a vision of an ideal world that seems real and attainable. The buildings in his pictures defy gravity, suns and moons loom larger than life, people look slightly weatherbeaten or daft, yet each scene coheres into a powerful image. His prints of villages crowded with details of peaceful cottages and rural folk with their humorous foibles are popular in Great Britain and have won him a following in this country. Artistic influences include cartoonist Ronald Searle and visionary painter Samuel Palmer. Clarke's work, which resembles a strange fusion of these sources, might be considered gentle escapism, except that his originality, lyrical flair and mastery of his media make him a convincing visionary artist in his own right. Sydney is an art historian based in London.
