Rowland Hilder: Painter and illustrator

This is a book about an artist who conditioned his fellow-countrymen - and others - to see beauty in the frost-rimmed furrows of ploughed fields, in the gaunt tracery of leafless trees against winter skies and in the sight of a boat drawn up on estuary mud or bare shingle bank. The lover of the English scene, and of good painting, will treasure the illustrations in this volume. (galgorm1)
