Why hadn't I ever heard of this man?<br /><br />I'm glad that, overdue as it is, attention is finally being paid to a superb artist who died much, much too soon.<br /><br />I am definitely going to add this book to my library.I'd always meant to, but your post gave me the necessary push.

So many illustrations & photos & fascinating to see how his work was changing in the last couple of years of his life. My copy of the Thomasson arrived at work this morning so I'll look forward to reading it.lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509400868331534237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-57888350477758667202015-04-29T09:07:15.293+10:002015-04-29T09:07:15.293+10:00I can see I'm going to have to read this now, ...I can see I'm going to have to read this now, after having loved Thomasson's book. That image on the back is one of the few she was able to use in her book - it's such an impressive and moving painting. This sounds like the perfect accompaniment.Simon T (Stuck in a Book)http://www.stuckinabook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-18800643199004672042015-04-29T07:59:36.399+10:002015-04-29T07:59:36.399+10:00I saw a lot of cathedrals & churches on my tri...I saw a lot of cathedrals & churches on my trip all those years ago but Salisbury was one of the most beautiful.
