Suffolk, Antique Collector's Club, 1995 Bound, blue cloth with gold impression, illustrated dustjacket, 28x22 cm., 595 pp ISBN 9781851491711. The Dictionary of Victorian Painters, first published in 1971, and since reprinted and revised many times, has for so long been the undisputed standard reference on a period of painting that continues to excite and interest the art world, that it was only a question of time before another revision and reformatted version appeared. The Dictionary now appears in two volumes, each complementary to one another yet entirely independent works depending on the particular interest of the reader. Tis volume, Victorian Painters - 1. The Text, contains over 11,000 entries which list every artist recorded during the period 1837-1901.
