英国最杰出的版画家之一创作的生动水彩风景画

作为英国杰出的版画家之一，诺曼·阿克罗伊德毕生致力于记录不列颠群岛的海岸风光。这本精美印刷的《设得兰群岛笔记本》收录了他39幅生动的水彩风景速写。这些作品大多创作于户外，有时是在颠簸摇晃的渔船上完成的，生动而自然地捕捉到了这些偏远而美丽的岛屿的独特氛围。笔记本独特的装帧完全出自艺术家之手：他将各种纸张撕成碎片，装订在一个由两块木板制成的活页夹中，然后将其塞进口袋，随时取用。他生动的文字注释将每幅速写置于其创作背景之中，并描述了创作技巧以及当日的天气状况。

Vivid watercolor landscapes from one of Britain's foremost printmakers

One of Britain's foremost printmakers, Norman Ackroyd has spent a lifetime recording the coastal landscapes of the British Isles. Gorgeously printed, A Shetland Notebook contains 39 of his vivid landscape sketches in watercolor. Made in the open air, often aboard a pitching and tossing fishing boat, these lively, spontaneous works capture the unique atmosphere of these remote and beautiful islands. The notebook's unusual format is due entirely to the artist, who uses sheets of various types of paper torn to fit into a loose-leaf binder made from two pieces of wooden picture-backing; this he tucks into his coat pocket, ready for use whenever the need arises. His engaging commentaries place each sketch in its context and describe the techniques employed to make it--as well as the day's prevailing weather conditions.

诺曼·阿克罗伊德（生于 1938 年）在伦敦皇家艺术学院学习。他在 20 世纪 80 年代转向风景画创作，从那时起，他描绘英国崎岖美丽海岸线的版画作品在世界各地广受赞誉。

Norman Ackroyd (b. 1938) studied at the Royal College of Art, London. He turned to landscape painting in the 1980s, and since then his prints of the ruggedly beautiful British coastline have been widely admired around the world.
