by Adrian Stokes, Richard Wollheim (Editor)

Description

"Over the last forty years Adrian Stokes has acquired an almost mythical reputation as one of the finest and most discriminating writers on art living today. Stokes' critical writings lie at the junction of three diverse influences: psychoanalysis, the English tradition of aesthetic writing which derives from Ruskin and Pater, and the artist's own special involvement with art."--from the back cover.
