Barbara Rae

With authoritative texts by Duncan Macmillan and Robin McKie and a wide array of illustrations, this handsome monograph charts the longstanding Royal Academician Dame Barbara Rae's long and succesful career as a redoubtable travelling artist. From her native Scotland to Spain, France, Ireland, America, Italy, South Africa and the polar regions, Rae's painterly abstraction bring together her twin fascinations with landscape and travel. Her sketchbooks feature here, too, revealing her process as she uses them to concieve the larger works she makes in her studio.
