Inhaltsangabe

Illustrated with over 250 thematically grouped images, this book is an extraordinary and captivating pictorial narrative of the artist’s life and work spanning 70 years. Reflecting on his ever changing world Cornish wrote, ‘This special world of mine is constantly changing and many of the people who inhabited it are no longer with us. Many of the places that once helped to make up that world have also passed into time… However, in my memory and I hope in my drawings they live on. I close my eyes and they all spring to life.’ William Varley’s accompanying essay offers a fascinating insight into Cornish’s life and his absolute commitment to recording the ‘narrow world’ that he knew. He examines Cornish’s development, encompassing his beginnings at the Spennymoor Settlement, determined self-education and gradual emergence as a national figure.
