Sybil & Cyril: Cutting Through Time Uglow Jenny
From Jenny Uglow, one of our most admired writers, a beautifully illustrated story of a love affair and a dynamic artistic partnership between the wars.In 1922, Cyril Power, a fifty-year-old architect, left his family to work with the twenty-four-year-old Sybil Andrews. Both became famous for their dynamic, modernist linocuts--streamlined, full of movement and brilliant color, summing up the hectic interwar years. They would be together for twenty years.
This is a world of futurists, surrealists, and pioneering abstraction, but also of the buzz Yet at the same time, they looked back to medieval myths and early music, to country ways that were disappearing from sight.Jenny Uglow's Sybil & Cyril: Cutting Through Time traces their struggles and triumphs, conflicts and dreams, following them from Suffolk to London, from the New Forest to Vancouver Island.
