ARTHUR RACKHAM by James Hamilton

ARTHUR RACKHAM by James Hamilton

This monograph looks at Arthur Rackham and uses diaries, letters, personal belongings and a wealth of information from his family in order to provide a picture of the artist. The author not only includes the more famous watercolour paintings of fairies and goblins, enchanted kingdoms and dark forests, but also includes his portraits and watercolours.

James Hamilton is an art and cultural historian. His books include TURNER: A LIFE, FARADAY: THE LIFE, shortlisted for the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, and A STRANGE BUSINESS: MAKING ART AND MONEY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY BRITAIN, which in 2014 was named Art Book of the Year by the SUNDAY TIMES.

Hamilton was until retirement in 2013 curator of art collections and projects in Portsmouth, Wakefield, Sheffield, Leeds and the University of Birmingham, where he is a Fellow of the Barber Institute of Fine Arts.
