A Natural History of English Gardening
Arts & Crafts Stained Glass
Samuel Palmer
Ireland
Peter Cormack
Shadows on the Wall William Vaughan
A beautifully illustrated exploration of the quest for order within the garden, and within the natural world, this magnificent book is an invaluable contribution to landscape and horticultural history.
A gorgeously illustrated, insightful corrective, Arts & Crafts Stained Glass demonstrates how this progressive and innovative movement radically transformed the aesthetics and production of stained glass in Britain and America.
This fresh, comprehensive monograph reveals the many influences and resources that made this artist one of the most idiosyncratic painters of English landscapes – and a precursor to 20th-century modernism.

The London Original Print Fair Royal Academy of Arts, Piccadilly | 23-26 April 2015 | www.londonprintfair.com
is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary this year. Established in 1985 with just sixteen dealers, the event now enjoys the attendance of fifty of the world’s leading print publishers, galleries and dealers. This year the old-master contingent is strengthened by the return of Hill-Stone (New York) and the inclusion of first time exhibitor August Laube (Zurich). Works for sale will encompass woodcuts from the time of Dürer, later old-master prints, twentieth-century movements and contemporary editions employing current techniques and processes.
THE LONDON ORIGINAL PRINT FAIR
The four horsemen of the Apocalypse, by Albrecht Dürer. c.1497–98. Plate 5 from The Apocalypse. Woodcut on laid paper, 39.5 by 27.9 cm C.G. BOERNER, NEW YORK AND DUSSELDORF
In past years the fair has displayed museum loan exhibitions from venerable institutions such as the Ashmolean and Rembrandthuis. The loan exhibition this time will comprise thirty print highlights from the Royal Collection and be housed in gallery 2. Sheets by masters such as Raphael and Canaletto will hang with historical and topographical prints and work by members of the royal family including Queen Victoria. While the magnificent collection of drawings housed in Windsor Castle (since 1830s) is widely known to scholars and the public, prints belonging to the Royal Collection do not enjoy quite the same recognition. Printed works have been consistently collected since the seventeenth century and now number in excess of 100,000 sheets. A programme of lectures, talks and events will run in parallel with the fair. Martin Clayton, Royal Collection Trust’s Head Curator of Prints and Drawings, will talk on the loan exhibition while artist Anita Klein will discuss and demonstrate the processes of relief printing. An evening arranged with young print collectors will witness a live screenprinting for Gavin Turk in collaboration with Jealous Gallery (London) and Enitharmon Editions (London). For more details on these events and the fair please visit: www.londonprintfair.com
