Diana Armfield : A Lyrical Eye

'Beautiful new book. . . . A treat for the senses' - Leisure Painter

A richly illustrated book that charts Diana's personal and artistic journey with over 200 beautiful reproductions of her work

Diana Armfield RA Hon RWS NEAC has a highly personal attachment to subject and a subtly distinctive affinity with the rhythms of form and tone. These qualities make her an important, influential figure in modern British art - and a very popular one. Flower paintings have brought her wide acclaim, but this book - created to mark her 100th birthday - also richly represents Diana's feeling for landscape and place.

Diana Armfield: A Lyrical Eye charts Diana's personal and artistic journey with over 200 beautiful reproductions of her work, tracing favourite subjects and events - from a Welsh landscape to an informal flower display or the much-loved location of a painting trip in Italy or France. The book also includes an interview with her by Andrew Lambirth and an essay on Diana's work.
