Annette Carruthers presents new insights on the life and work of “the greatest of the English artist-craftsmen”.

Ernest Gimson (1864 – 1919) was described by Pevsner as ‘the greatest of the artist-craftsmen’ and was a central figure in the British Arts & Crafts Movement. A new book on Gimson’s life and work by Annette Carruthers, Mary Greensted and Barley Roscoe will be published by Yale University Press in October 2019. Some of the discoveries made during their recent research will be outlined in this talk.
