More about the book

A uniquely personal and charming collection of 53 original artworks depicting life in rural Wales from 1930-1944, painted retrospectively from memory by artist Eironwy Llewellyn whilst in her seventies. The jaunty, naive style is intended to convey her early life as remembered ' through the eyes of a child', with the various scenes charmingly recalling life as it was lived during this period. Each painting is accompanied by commentary by the artist on its context and subjects, creating a uniquely personal and insightful record of the bygone traditions and community activity of rural Wales. These artworks and writings have been compiled by Eironwy's daughter, Sara.
