"Still lifes, the subjects of Rachel's earliest work from 1975, were a favourite motif of Ben's and of his father, William Nicholson. Although landscapes and St Ives townscapes were later to play an increasingly important role, 'The still life,' she remarked, 'was more inbuilt, more inherited.' In this first monograph on the artist, Alan Wilkinson traces the development of her work from still lifes, land- and seascapes, townscapes, to the inside/outside views from her own flat in St Ives, from the houses and flats of friends, and the series of views from the Tate St Ives restaurant. He discusses the most important formative influences on her work."--Publisher description
