Life in an English Village — Edward Bawden (Penguin, King Penguin, 1949)
This beautiful volume, part of the collectible King Penguin series, was first published in 1949 and showcases sixteen lithographs by the celebrated British artist Edward Bawden (1903–1989). Bawden, one of the most distinctive illustrators and printmakers of 20th-century Britain, captured with wit and precision the everyday life of an English village just after the Second World War.
The book is notable for its combination of short descriptive text and the full-page lithographs, each one reflecting Bawden’s characteristic sharp lines, humor, and affection for English rural traditions. It has become a sought-after title among both collectors of King Penguin volumes and admirers of Bawden’s work.
The copy: Hardback, Penguin (King Penguin) 1949. In excellent condition, with the only flaw being a discreet written note (“Carrington”) on the front cover, spine somewhat yellowed..
