I love this book! Brilliant biography of the...utterly fascinating artist Isabel Rawsthorne Jennifer Higgie "Every page is gripping, fascinating, forcefully and excitingly written, and sad." Andrew Motion "Isabel Rawsthorne's life reads like a ready-made screenplay... - a poverty stricken upbringing, world wars, espionage, affairs, addiction, politics ... all set to a series of evocative cinematic backdrops. And that's before any mention of her career as one of the most hidden but influential artists of the 20th century." Interiors and Home "Jacobi's bigger project here, seems to be to reimagine what an artist biography... can be." The Art Newspaper "Highlights how talented women have often missed out on the recognition they deserved" Observer Isabel Rawsthorne's painting career at the centre of the Parisian and London avantgardes was eclipsed by the many occasions on which her friends made her the subject of their art, notably Epstein, Derain, Giacometti, Picasso and Bacon. This pioneering painter exhibited from the early 1930s, was influential in the 1940s and well known in the 1960s, but in her later years Giacometti's and Bacon's blockbuster biographies made her famous as a muse. Rawsthorne's work is now in major collections, and this beautifully illustrated book re-writes the pre- and post-war art history of which she was a part: it is traced through the upheavals of the 20th century and her singular relationships with some of its most fascinating figures. A decade of research into the period, Rawsthorne's art and archives, and the memories of friends, has revealed for the first time her role in a rebel group at Liverpool School of Art; success and tragedy in the 1930s when she was studio assistant to Jacob Epstein; her life-long collaborations with Alberto Giacometti; and, after the war, with Francis Bacon and with African Modernism in the 1960s, as well as her exceptional late work. It also tells the full story of her break from art during the second world war, when she worked for the government in black propaganda.

Perfect Divider Wall!
Color: Iron, Color: Iron
This Divider Wall is perfect for creating a private and organized space! The sleek black design blends seamlessly into my room, and the build quality is excellent. It’s lightweight yet sturdy, standing firmly on the floor without wobbling. I use it to separate my desk area from my bed, and it makes the room feel more functional and professional. Highly recommended for anyone looking to divide their space efficiently while maintaining a modern aesthetic!

Great for separation and stands on its on without issues.
Color: Midnight
Nice panel! But ... if you plan to use as a bulletin board, not great. We are going to place styrofoam in between to see if can get things to stay in place. We homeschool and it keeps our grands from distracting each other.

Provides privacy without being stanoffish
Color: Steel, Color: Steel
Its a perfect way to get a lil bit of privacy, its the color steel. Its a little darker than the picture but it works. Free standing doesn't attach to furniture and takes maybe 10 mins to put together. It's about 5 feet tall. Very lightweight cover slides over the steel frame and zips st the bottom.

Perfect for my office space!!
It's a well packaged item including a simple tool set and a clear instruction. I put it together just by myself in about 15-20 minutes without any problems. The base is solid pieces of metal, and it stands very sturdy. It's also light enough for me to move it around in my office to serve different purposes. I like the color and the quality of the fabric. It blends in with my office space perfectly. I needed it as a partition between my desk and the door, and the background for my video conference call. Surprisingly, it can also deflect the air coming down from the AC vent behind my desk. I didn't expect it to 100% soundproofing (not its purpose), but I feel it did absorb some humming sound from my mini fridge behind my desk. I would recommend this to my colleague.
