'Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers' - Charles W.Eliot
Artist: William Scott Author: Ronald Alley Publisher: Methuen Date: 1963 Condition: The first edition hardback, complete with original dust wrapper. Clean and tidy internally, this copy is however an ex-library book, the wrapper covered with a protective clear film and there are the associated stamps and inserts. Illustrated throughout in black and white with the occasional colour plate
Alley's early small monograph on Scott remains a useful text, including a range of images from the whole of Scott's career, biographical and bibliographical listings and an interesting essay on the artist and his ideas.
