This gripping story of one of the great graphic satirists and
watercolor artists of the British School is based upon a mass of
new research. Rowlandson kept no diary, wrote few letters, and
occurs only infrequently in the memoirs of others. Source material
is not abundant. But in more than a decade's research, using church
and official records, newspaper reports, contemporary accounts,
sales catalogues and consideration of his pictures, the authors
shed new light on Rowlandson's family background, his education and
art training in London and Paris, his personal and professional
associations, his travels in Britain and abroad, and the work
itself.
Fully illustrated, this major contribution to scholarship will
appeal to the general reader and specialist alike and is destined
to become the standard work on this benchmark British artist.
