Samuel Palmer with an introduction and notes by Robert Melville - Plates.
"Mr. Robert Melville well known as a sensitive critic, writes here of Samuel Palmer's pastoral landscapes with emphasis on those produced at Shoreham in Kent when the mantle of Blake was upon him.
"Samuel Palmer then set out (as he wrote in his diary) "to unite poetic remoteness with such homely reality as the smell of turned-up earth" ; and Mr. Melville explains why his art is now so especially inspiring to a number of present-day painters."
