The Art of Dora Carrington

At the age of 38, Dora Carrington (1893-1932) committed suicide, unableto contemplate living without her companion, Lytton Strachey, who haddied a few weeks before. The association with Lytton and his Bloomsburyfriends, combined with her own modesty have tended to overshadowCarrington's contribution to modern British painting. This book aims toredress the balance by looking at the immense range of her work:portraits, landscapes, glass paintings, letter illustrations anddecorative work.
