An extremely scarce title, for the collector. Very good, clean, tight copy. "Unknown Colour" by Andrew Nicholson, brings together all Winifred Nicholson's works for the first time and reproduces in colour the wide range of her paintings, conveying in words and images the essence of her art which is light, colour and radiance. 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
