The Paintings of John Ward [first edition]

Whether working with watercolours, pen and ink or pencil, John Ward is equally at home sketching a bustling continental street scene, catching in watercolour the light of a landscape or executing officially-commissioned portraits for the Royal Family. Architecture, still life, flower and figure subjects - all are well represented in his portfolio. Here is a collection of much of his best work, together with his own wry and witty account of his career and the story behind each painting.
