  Stanley Spencer was the most intensely local of all great artists, and his native village of Cookham was a central source of inspiration. Yet he was far from parochial, and woven into Duncan Robinson's account of the artist's career is a just appreciation of his greatness and of his place in the wider context of European art. This book celebrates both the range and the powerful individual quality of Spencer's achievements as a religious visionary, war artist, portrait painter and landscapist.
