About this book

Gwen John and Augustus John by Jenkins, David Fraser. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781854375438.

Augustus John (1878-1961) was one of the best-known and most colorful British artists of his generation, while his sister Gwen (1876-1939) led a reclusive life studying under Whistler in Paris. Since the 1960s, Gwen Johns intense studies of female nudes and portraits have made her a feminist icon, and Augustuss work has fallen from fashion. This book, with more than 100 color illustrations, examines the sibling artists side by side for the first time. AUTHOR BIO: David Fraser Jenkins is a senior curator and Chris Stephens is a curator at Tate.
