William Nicholson
A survey of William Nicholson's graphic work shown against the background of the artist's life. William Nicholson (1872-1949) achieved fame as a printmaker long before he became widely known as a painter. The bold woodcuts in his "Alphabet" brought him success with public and critics.

"This is the story of a painter's life. To make phrases about William Nicholson's work is to insult and offend him ... The history of a painter's life is the history of his work and of the conditions under which he does his work; after that let the work speak for itself"--Page 9.

William Nicholson, Painter
This volume provides a documentary account of William Nicholson's life and work. It uses contemporary records, articles and reminiscences, and the numerous letters William wrote to his family and friends. The text considers what Nicholson painted, why and for whom; what spurred him on to experimention and artistic adventure; how he fared in times of elation and anguish; how he combined the serious playfulness of his vision with a deep affection for nature; and how he collaborated with some of the leading men of his day, among them Rudyard Kipling, J.M. Barrie, William Orpen, Edwin Lutyens, Robert Graves (his son-in-law), and Winston Churchill. The aim is to do justice to the diversity of William Nicholson's work, and provide a detailed portrait of the man and the artist.
