Description
The artist Dora Carrington (1893-1932) was a true bohemian. Sir John Rothenstein once described her as 'the most neglected serious painter of her time', but Carrington—who cut her hair short and chose to be known by her surname—was a significant contributor to Modern British art during the interwar years and a vital associate of the Bloomsbury Group.
Bringing her artworks together, this book summons up Carrington's whole way of life: loving, creative, domestic and intimate. She was an artist who remained true to her own vision and to the people and places that nourished her.
