This is an excellent catalogue, beautifully produced. Short, compelling, essays on aspects of Sickert, including his later influence on Auerbach, Bacon and Freud and even the Jack the Ripper controversy (the Tate shop rather interestingly put Moore's 'From Hell' next to the catalogue as an example of further reading). A model of its genre.

This book is a catalogue of the 2018 Tate Britain exhibition, which explored how memories of the First World War were incorporated into the art of Britain, France and Germany in the following 15 years.
The various essays (about war memorials, Dada and surrealism, revivals of neo-classicism and realism) are thought provoking, even if I didn’t agree with all the ideas suggested, and they usefully reminded me and expanded my understanding of the period.
Disappointingly, the book is smaller than most exhibition catalogues, which makes it more difficult to appreciate the illustrations, especially the illustrations of items not in the exhibition itself, but used to expand upon issues in the essays, and I hadn’t really considered this as a requirement of exhibition catalogues before. Overall, it is a useful reminder of the exhibition, but I suspect that other books more successfully address issues that can only be noted here due to lack of space.… (mere)
