Australian genesis and exodus: the stories of Derwent Lees, Horace Brodsky, their lives, their families, and their in-common friends and acquaintences

Written by an ophthalmologist and passionate art collector, this book is unique in explaining the meeting point between a study of human vision, and how we see and interpret works of art. The way we process visual information determines our appreciation of paintings, particularly those demonstrating undisguised brushstroke lines, which Lew has studied for nearly forty years. By closely examining the wealth of images in this book, many by well-known artists, we can learn to see them anew and appreciate the dedication and skill of the author..
