He was regarded as a fine book illustrator and often created work for other graphic and theatrical forms. This new book offers 100 images, with an introduction to his art and contribution made by Nash to the cultural sophistication of the modern world.

Book Description
The art of Paul Nash drew heavily on William Blake, Samuel Palmer and Dante Gabriel Rosetti, and on Nash's close relationship with the poetry of the English countryside, leading to his characterisation as an 'essentially English' artist. But Nash also produced some of the most imaginative responses by a British artist to the thrilling potential of European modernism, experimenting with abstraction and helping to establish the Surrealist movement in Britain.

Book Description
New edition of William Blake in the popular Masterpieces of Art series. Rich and delicate, ethereal and muscular, the art of William Blake is as fascinating as the philosophies threading through his poetry and prophetic works. Presented here in this magnificent new collection, his vivid paintings and gently weaving illustrations are imprinted in the consciousness of Romantic art, but their impact on Gothic literature remains as strong and quixotic as the artist himself.

Paul Nash
Author: Andrew Causey
Publisher: Lund Humphries Publishers Limited
ISBN: 9781848220966
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Paul Nash (1889-1946) is one of England's most important artists. Though his career was relatively brief, Nash's oeuvre is impressively diverse and draws in paintings, watercolours, prints, set design, book illustration and photography. Focusing on the artist's work as a painter, Andrew Causey skilfully discusses Nash's work from all periods to present the artist's continuity of ideas and ambitions. Paul Nash does not fit easily into any pattern of 20th-century British art. The many themes which run through his work - personal and national identity; the horrors of war - and the many movements and ideas with which he was engaged - Cubism; abstraction; Surrealism; Neo-Romanticism; animism and totemism - makes the task of unravelling the trajectory of his career challenging. By taking a chronological, thematic approach, Andrew Causey analyses the many influences and directions Nash explored in his remarkable career to reveal an artist who combined elements of Modernism and tradition to create a wholly original vision.--
