Eyton's Eye

Anthony Eyton RA is a distinguished figurative painter. His subject matter ranges from his back garden to the scenes he has experienced on his many travels across four continents. This book, the first monograph of the artist, traces his career through the war years, his association with Camberwell School of Arts to our appraisal of his standing in post-war British art. Jenny Pery draws on Eyton's personal diaries which provide a fresh contemporary view on both private and material events.
