Amshewitz, Sarah Briana : The Paintings of J. H. Amshewitz R.B.A

(London: B. T. Batsford, 1951)

4to; original red cloth, lettered in gilt on spine; printed dustwrapper with pictorial onlay to upper panel; pp. xiv + 66; plates, some of which in colour. Price-clipped dustwrapper (housed in removable protector) rather foxed and edgeworn, with some archival tape repairs to reverse; earlier owners' names to front endpaper; old tape mark to rear free endpaper; old tape repair to bottom edge of one plate leaf; quite foxed. Good condition. "The numerous colour and black and white illustrations to this book give a representative selection from Amshewitz's life work. Ten of the plates are in full colour and there are more than 80 monochrome reproductions of murals, portraits, drawings, water-colours and paintings. These reproductions form a particularly impressive record of Amshewitz's work in South Africa, an aspect of his oeuvre which is comparatively little known in England. The text, by the painter's wife, gives an intimate and fascinating account of J. H. Amshewitz's life, his struggles and successes, and his many friends. The whole book will provide a valued record of Amshewitz's work for the many admirers of his art."
