Light edgewear to wraps, age toning. *** "The Times, reviewing the first edition of this book said it 'presents most effectively in words and pictures a survey of the swift and amazing uprush of painting in Australia in the space of little more than 20 years. John Douglas Pringle's introduction could hardly be bettered in its succinctly dramatic account of the factors of land, race and history which brought about the birth of a national school -- 'we have seen', he remarks, 'taking place during our own lives and under our own eyes, something which has never been observed before and . . . may never happen again.' Allowing for the abstract and international influences which today evidently create vigorous oppositions and striking contrasts in effort, he is primarily concerned with those artists who are distinctively Australian, whom he discusses individually, from Dobell, Drysdale, Nolan and Boyd to the 'new humanists' who have come into prominence in the past few years, Dickerson, Blackmand and Pugh. An excellent series of illustrations bears out his summing up of the School as "romantic, swift, dashing and emphatic." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.…
