"The artists of Bloomsbury, Roger Fry, Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, played a prominent role in the development of modernist painting in Britain. Their work was often audacious and experimental, and had considerable influence on British art and design in the twentieth century." "This catalogue, published to accompany the first major exhibition of the Bloomsbury painters ever to be held in Britain, provides a new look at the visual side of a movement that is more generally known for its literary achievements. Catalogue entries on two hundred works, all illustrated in colour, bring out the chief characteristics of their painting - domestic, contemplative, sensuous, and essentially pacific."--Jacket.
