William Nicholson

Artist: William Nicholson 
Author: Lillian Browse

Lillian Browse was a good friend of WN and her 1956 biography and catalogue raisonne was a major landmark publication on the artist. Although there have been many subsequent books on him, it remains a very useful and accessible volume for anyone who is interested in his life and work.
