Hardcover. Condition: New. Growing up in poverty in blitz-ravaged south London, the painter Dennis Creffield (1931-2018) discovered his vocation under David Bomberg at Borough Polytechnic. This first monograph follows his further studies at the Slade, his conversion to Catholicism, and his marriage and life in Brighton. More than 170 illustrations feature his abstract paintings, portraits, drawings of English and French cathedrals, and eerie depictions of the military test range at Orford Ness.
