Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The painter and printmaker Craigie Aitchison (1926-2009), born in Edinburgh and trained at the Slade School for Art, is best-known for his spare compositions and intense, luminous palette. His subject-matter is equally distinctive - single flower, Bedlington terriers, sheep and crucifixions - rendered, as in the early Italian religious paintings that he so admired, in simple but powerful forms. These hallmarks are also present in Aitchison's prints, most of which are the legacy of his longstanding relationship with the technicians at Advanced Graphics, London. His prints are all brought togethers for the first time in his authoritative publication, an essential purchase for all those interested in Aitchison's work.
