Helen Allingham's paintings of rural England now enjoy enormous popularity and receive greater acclaim than ever before. In this new biography, the first for almost 90 years, the astonishing versatility of Helen Allingham's work is revealed. The 110 illustrations show that the painter of cottages in fact produced fine seaside and farmyard scenes, portraits and interiors as well as the much-loved flower borders. Seen also for the first time are some twenty of Helen's early pencil sketches, photographs and examples of her magazine illustrations.
