We already know the high artistic skills and powerful imagination of Graham Turner. In this book he has also shown himself a skilful historian, drawing on wide reading and careful attention to sources.
His book is beautifully illustrated by his own work along with well chosen photographs of objects, sites and manuscripts. But it also gives us a carefully researched narrative and analysis of the Wars of the Roses which is eminently readable.
In short this is a unique and compelling book. Visually fabulous - no other word for it. A must have book for anyone interested in this period. An amazing achievement.

The Wars of the Roses

The Medieval Art of Graham Turner

BOOKS SIGNED BY GRAHAM TURNER AVAILABLE THROUGH STUDIO 88

Since first being inspired by a visit to Bosworth battlefield nearly 30 years ago, the Wars of the Roses has been a central theme of Graham Turner's artistic career, his paintings and prints prized by historians and collectors for their meticulously researched attention to detail, combined with dramatic and atmospheric compositions, which bring to life this fascinating, dynamic, colourful but turbulent period of history.

Graham has devoted his efforts over the past few years to bringing you this volume, a collection of over 120 of his paintings and drawings, many newly created, with supplementary images and a comprehensive and fascinating text that illuminates the complex, shifting course of events and the people who lived their lives through this tumultuous time.

The book is now available and Signed copies can be ordered directly from Graham through Studio 88.
