Wood Engraving Wednesday

Today we display some horticultural wood engravings by English/American artist, writer, and illustrator Clare Leighton (1898-1989) from Clare Leighton’s Rural Life: An Anthology, published in Oxford by the Bodleian Library in 2023. The book was edited with an introduction by Leighton’s devoted nephew, David Leighton (1931-2022), who sadly did not live to see its publication. Throughout her long career, Clare Leighton delighted in the organic forms of farms and countryside.
