Nicholson, Winifred. (Compiled by Andrew Nicholson).
Unknown Colour: Paintings, Letters, Writings by Winifred Nicholson
(Faber & Faber Ltd, London, 1987).
An extremely scarce title, for the collector. Very good, clean, tight copy.

Compiled by Andrew Nicholson. Winifred Nicholson (1893-1981), wife of Ben Nicholson, is particularly remembered for her exquisite flower studies - many of which were painted before a window. She often incorporated landscape elements from Cumberland, Cornwall and the South of France into her work. Also characteristic of her style was the abstract using an ellipse shape. Hardback. Top corner slightly bumped, otherwise very good+, clean bright copy. Dustwrapper also very good, though with light creasing at corners, & minor, almost imperceptible, scratches. 271pp. Order No. NSBK-C4620
