    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Varied and deliberately diverse, this group of essays provides a refreshing reassessment of the life and work of Victorian artist Samuel Palmer. The volume examines his work in relation to a wider art world and analyses areas of his life that have until now not received the attention they deserve, reinstating the study of Palmer's work within broader debates about landscape and cultural history.

    Long description:

    Varied and deliberately diverse, this group of essays provides a reassessment of the life and work of the popular nineteenth-century artist Samuel Palmer. While scholarly publications have been published recently which reassess Palmer's achievement, those works primarily consider the artist in isolation. This volume examines his work in relation to a wider art world and analyses areas of his life and output that have until now received little attention, reinstating the study of Palmer's work within broader debates about landscape and cultural history. In Samuel Palmer Revisited, the contributors provide a fresh perspective on Palmer's work, its context and its influence.

    '... the varied and sometimes significant new research presented in Samuel Palmer Revisited makes it an important addition to libraries of British art.' Print Quarterly '... offers significant new insights into Palmer's life and contexts ...' Victorian Studies
