Linocuts of the Machine Age: Claude Flight and the Grosvenor School

Artists: Claude Flight, Cyril Power, Sybil Andrews, Lill Tschudi, Ethel Spowers et al.
Author: Stephen Coppel 
Publishers: Scolar Press 
Date: 1995 
Condition: Very good, a first edition hardback with the original unclipped dust wrapper over black boards. Internally very clean and tidy, also signed by the author on the title page. Loosely inserted a small three fold flyer for an exhibition of linocuts by Lill Tschudi at Mary Ryan Gallery, New York in 1990 

The authoritative study of this dynamic and stylish group of printmakers whose style seems to epitomise the period they worked in. This kind of linocut work has been hugely influential right up to the present day and this exhaustive study is unlikely to be improved upon. 

A must for the enthusiast, collector or professional who needs chapter and verse on this group of artists. Quite a scarce volume, especially as a signed example in near fine condition.
