About the artist: Sir William Rothenstein (1872-1945) was an English painter, printmaker, draughtsman, lecturer, and writer on art. Emerging during the early 1890s, Rothenstein continued to make art right up until his death in 1945. Though he covered many subjects ranging from landscapes in France to representations of Jewish synagogues in London, he is perhaps best known for his work as a war artist in both world wars, his portraits, and his popular memoirs, written in the 1930s. More than two hundred of Rothenstein's portraits of famous people can be found in the National Portrait Gallery collection. The Tate Gallery also holds a large collection of his paintings, prints and drawings. Rothenstein served as Principal at the Royal College of Art from 1920 to 1935. He was knighted in 1931 for his services to art.

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. A magisterial work on the subject, organized around essays of narrower topics such as Revue, Opera, Lyric Theatre in Hammersmith; cumulatively, these are a virtual sweeping survey of theater costume without the plodding quality of a book announcing itself as a survey, and the caliber of writers and artists lend a spark to the text and artwork seldom encountered in a survey. 4to. 28 by 22.5 cm. xv, [1], 143 pp. 110 plates (frontis, then numbered I to CIX). Edges of spine rubbed,and small spots of worn through cloth along edges. Spine tips with tiny closed tearing. A hint of shake to the binding. Otherwise, a very clean copy. 46 of the plates are full color plates. Plates on a glossy paper stock, with accompanying tissue guards with crediting discreetly printed on verso, or facing side, of tissue guards. Also an abundance of illustrations scattered throughout the text.
