Description

Sandra McGrath traces the development of Boyd’s Shoalhaven paintings from his first, hasty oil sketch of the river, through to his most recent masterly works. Drawing on many hours of discussion with the artist, she explores in detail the scenes, events and imagery which have enabled him to tame the Shoalhaven landscape, as well as explaining the significance of the Shoalhaven paintings in the context of his earlier work. In addition, Boyd himself comments on his paintings individually, providing a fascinating insight into his life and work and over 90 of Boyds Shoalhaven paintings, examples of his earlier work, but sketches from his latest works. This book fills a vital gap in Australian art literature.  Not only will it appeal to those interested in art, but also to anyone interested in the Australian landscape.
