This book contains a detailed account of the life and work of F.L.Griggs (1876-1938), acclaimed as one of the finest etchers of his time. Most of his subjects are architectural; some show actual places, whilst others are constructs from a rich arts-and-crafts imagination. Hitherto a largely unrecognised pivot in British Romantic Art, Griggs's work links that of Turner, Blake and Samuel Palmer with the neo-romantics Graham Sutherland and John Piper..
