London Chatto & Windus 1908 Limited/Numbered Very Good 4to Keith Henderson & Norman Wilkinson

Original cloth-backed boards with printed paper labels. Norman Wilkinson (1882-1934) adopted the suffix 'of Four Oaks' to distinguish himself from the marine artist of the same name. His work is 'meticulous in execution with echoes of 'fin-de-siecle symbolism'. Keith Henderson (b1883) shared a Paris studio with Wilkinson, his early work consisted mainly of portraits. 'He was a painter and muralist, pastel draughtsman and illustrator in pen and ink, pencil and watercolour, and scraperboard'... Peppin & Micklethwait.
