About This Item
Douglas & McIntyre, Limited, Vancouver, BC, Canada, 1987. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. 950 g; VI, 7-331, (5) pages, with selected bibliography, index, 14 black-and-white photographs, and 10 reproductions of artworks in colour. The only damage to either book or the photographic jacket, is a very faint tape mark to front and rear free end pages from sticky tape used to hold plastic to protect the book. Focusing on Emily Carr in the context of the social and psychological barriers that have prevented creative women in the past from achieving full expression and recognition, Blanchard sees her as one woman who "came through." She different from most other gifted women of her time in the degree to which she actively for the can for standards of the society in which she lived in in order to preserve her own integrity as a person -- and as a woman. In doing so, she also preserved her integrity as an artist. -- Front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. We are happy to provide pictures of this book on request Quantity Available: 1.
