The book then provides copious illustrations of the colour linocuts promoted by Claude Flight, and taken up by Andrews, Power and Lill Tschudi (who trained at the Grosvenor School in London before returning to Switzerland). These sections of the catalogue are grouped thematically, rather than chronologically, which makes it difficult to see whether techniques are developed. The colour illustrations of Andrews and Power complement Uglow’s joint biography, and the works by other artists help to place their work in context.
