A fully updated and expanded edition of the definitive study of
Phoebe Anna Traquair. This is a compelling account of the life and
career of Phoebe Anna Traquair, a leading figure in Britain's Arts
and Crafts movement. The new edition features new research about
her artistic practice, materials and technique as well as her
intellectual life, including her correspondence with John Ruskin.
Her total commitment to the place of art in her daily life is
revealed alongside new details on her family and social life.
Traquair was remarkable for her openness to all types of art, and
worked in a range of media including embroidery, enamels,
illuminated manuscripts and murals. This new edition features 120
illustrations including new discoveries, as well as some of her
most famous and best-loved works. Beautifully illustrated and
featuring the artist's own words, this book is at once a
fascinating biography and an artistic study of one of Scotland's
first professional women artists.
