The Bloomsbury Group by Frances Spalding

The Bloomsbury Group changed British culture with their approach to art, design and society. This circle of artists, writers and intellectuals, who met for discussion in London in the early twentieth century, challenged Victorian conventions and presented new models of behaviour. They recorded one another continually in both words and images, and Frances Spalding explores these portraits against a background of biographies, including Virginia and Leonard Woolf, Vanessa and Clive Bell, Duncan Grant and Dora Carrington.
Frances Spalding is an authority on Bloomsbury and has written biographies of Roger Fry, Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant. She is Reader in Twentieth-Century British Art at the University of Newcastle.
