Spine uncreased.; "A Terrible Beauty: British Artists in the First World War" by Paul Gough explores the profound impact of World War I on British artists and their work. This insightful book delves into how the war reshaped the artistic landscape of Britain, focusing on painters, sculptors, and illustrators who documented, commemorated, and responded to the horrors and heroism of the time. Gough discusses the dual role of artists as both participants in the conflict and observers, revealing how their experiences and the dramatic changes in society influenced their artistic output. The book features prominent figures such as Paul Nash, Percy Wyndham Lewis, and C. R. W. Nevinson, whose works capture the brutal realities and emotional intensity of the war. Gough critically analyzes how these artists conveyed the tumultuous emotions and destruction of the war, contributing to both the historical record and the national consciousness. "A Terrible Beauty" offers a compelling examination of the intersection between art, war, and national identity, providing valuable insights into the cultural aftermath of World War I.; Octavo; 335 pages.
