What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘Rarely do colour reproductions catch the mood of paintings as well as in this book. It is made exceptionally resonant through the marriage between text and images. The moment you open the pages you enter fully into Sheila Fell’s world, and gain fresh understanding.’ - Frances Spalding, art historian, cultural historian, biographer and critic

‘This is a wonderfully comprehensive illustrated catalogue that brings to life the work of a neglected artist. Illustrating many paintings which have hitherto been unpublished, the accompanying text has been meticulously researched and illuminates the essence of Fell’s considerable talents. This is a celebration of a remarkable painter and the Cumbrian landscape that inspired her.’ - Frances Christie, Former Deputy Chairman of Sotheby’s, UK and Ireland
