It is an absolute gem and I purchased the book because I fell in love with the watercolours illustrated within its covers.

I very quickly discovered how incredibly difficult it is to paint well in such a spontaneous medium, and the feeling of frustration at not being able to achieve on paper the image that your eye has presented you with is intense! Each of the 73 color plates in this book also are accompanied by Prince Charles's personal experiences while painting the picture. This means that you may win an item for less than your maximum bid, however you can also be outbid if someone enters a higher maximum bid. As a result, you become increasingly aware of things that may have escaped your attention previously – things like the quality of light and shade, of tone and texture and of the shape of buildings in relation to the landscape. With a forward by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, an introduction and text by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales and an appreciation by John Ward CBE, RA, RWS, this enchanting book is lavishly illustrated with English scenes, impressions of Scotland and views of Italy, France and Spain.Purchase of lots marked with the symbol * only will be subject to payment of a levy for Artist's Resale Rights.
