Customer Reviews

A facinating man- worth reading5
This is an essential read for the Lowry fan. Shelly Rhodes has delved into every corner to research this book. The book carries a life story of someone who tried to keep his two secret lives apart. The rent collector and clark Vs The Artist.
A man who worked by day and painted by night. A man who died yet had no registered doctor. He lead the galleries a merry dance, all looking for a few painting in his will, they courted him in his old age. Yet he left them all to a girl also called Lowry who wrote him a letter years before, asking how she could become an artist...

A remarkable man... nice book

(This is a serious biography not an art book.)

Shelley Rohde shines with an amazing look at Lowry5
A outstanding look at L.S.Lowry. Packed with the most detailed information any art lover could ever want on Britain's most famous artist. A truly great read. I tip my hat to Ms. Rohde for her detail and dedication.
