A survey of the fine illustration work that was done in Britain in the 20th century, focusing particularly on the work of staff and students of Central Saint Martins. It looks at not only book illustration for both adults and children but also fashion illustration, comics and cartoons, and commercial illustrations such as the 1930s classic posters for London Transport and Shell.
Sylvia Backemeyer is Head of Research at Central St Martins and the author of a number of books on various art subjects.
