Description
Noel Coward modestly described himself as having ‘a talent to amuse’.
This book reveals for the first time a different and unexpected talent – for painting. Oil painting became a consuming private passion of Coward’s later years, and he produced a succession of vivid, stylish and highly accomplished landscapes, mostly of his beloved Jamaica.
Describing them as ‘reminiscent of a sun-drenched Lowry or Hockney’, Sheridan Morley provides the setting for a sequence of paintings that will add a new dimension to a many-sided talent.
