Bøker av Anne Desmet

The well respected wood Engraver, Anne Desmet, selects 45 of her favourite wood engravings from the Ashmolean collection.

A jewel-like book that evokes unmistakable Italian landscapes and cityscapes. It commits every detail to paper, and the small-scale format emphasises the author's distinctive flair for capturing the relationship between extreme foreground and distance. It explores Italy, from Apennines to Veneto, through the eyes of a very particular artist.
