An Artists Year In London

London, You're Beautiful, by David Gentleman

It's easy to take London for granted, with our hectic train stations, non-stop hustle and bustle of city life and the dilemma as to whether we should risk leaving our umbrella at home or not! But David Gentleman has been drawing London all his adult life and has spent his days looking afresh at London, detailing our capital city throughout the year. Reflecting his love for the city he has lived in for over 60 years, Gentleman's art mirrors all that's beautiful and definining in London, from quaint Primose Hill to eclectic Camden Town, including our historic infastructure.

His charming illustrations breathe new life into a city we can often neglect in our busy day to day lives. Every painitng and sketch reveals a hidden beauty of London, as he details the changes from spring to summer, autumn to winter. A brilliant book to celebrate our unique capital!
