Guernica by James Attlee
A concise account of the painting often described as the most important work of art produced in the twentieth century.
'An impressive overview.. Succeeds in showing how influential Guernica has been, and how it continues to be used as a reference point in political and military conflicts of today' The Sunday Times.
'Attlee digs up rich examples of the debate and devotion that invariably attended the paining ... Guernica literature abounds; but this book is a worthwhile addition' The Spectator.
'[James Attlee's] slim book, which is clearly written and beautifully produced, both updates the tale and adds something fresh to the mix ... Attlee's book helps you appreciate [Guernica's] daring and resonance' Literary Review.
