The art of Dora Carrington
Hill, Jane, 1958-
The art of Dora Carrington / Jane Hill ; foreword by Michael Holroyd - New York : Thames and Hudson, 1994 - 144 p. : illus. ; 25 cm
Includes bibliographical references (p. 134-137) and index.
At the age of 38, Dora Carrington committed suicide, unable to contemplate living without her companion, Lytton Strachey, who had died a few weeks before. The association with Lytton and his Bloomsbury friends, combined with her own modesty have tended to overshadow Carrington's contribution to modern British painting. This book aims to redress the balance by looking at the immense range of her work: portraits, landscapes, glass paintings, letter illustrations and decorative work.
