VANESSA BELL: MODERN LIVING (HB)

The painter Vanessa Bell initiated a step change in modern British art, bringing the bright palette and bold stylization of the Parisian avant-garde to London. She was a central figure in the Bloomsbury group, alongside members of her family and close circle including Virginia Woolf, Clive Bell and Duncan Grant. This book explores Bell’s radical approach to art and life through her paintings and designs for interiors, gardens, book jackets and more. Illustrated by over 100 striking images drawn from the V&A’s collection of her work.
