Description:
First printing. Paperback. Light creasing to the edges of the front cover, head and tail of the spine and bottom edge of the back cover. Internally a few pages in the middle of the book have a small crease to the front edge, otherwise the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions. Signed and dated 'With Best Wishes' by Thomas on the front endpaper. In this unique and fully illustrated study Anabel Thomas presents a detailed picture of the commissioning, production and marketing of paintings in Renaissance Tuscany, examining such aspects as the way in which the painter and his business functioned from day to day, how the subjects and their style were decided, the constraints on cost and design, and the division of labour within and between workshops.

Description:
Reprint. Illustrated by Arthur Rackham. Book has light rubbing to the edges, bumping to the top corners of the front and back boards, light creasing to the head and tail of the spine and some light age tanning to the pages and page edges. No DJ. J.M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as a baby, living in secret with the birds and fairies in the middle of London, but as the children for whom he invented the stories grew older, so too did Peter, reappearing in Neverland, where he was aided in his epic battles with Red Indians and pirates by the motherly and resourceful Wendy Darling. With their contrary lures of home and escape, childhood and maturity, safety and high adventure, these unforgettable tales are equally popular with children and adults.
