Raymond Lister — himself a distinguished authority on Palmer and his circle — presents an authoritative account of the artist's journey from his mystical early years in Shoreham, Kent, through his long friendship with William Blake, to his later career as an etcher and watercolourist. The narrative uncovers the deeply religious and romantic sensibility that drove Palmer's extraordinary body of work, situating him firmly within the broader context of the English Romantic movement. Drawing on letters, journals, and original sources, Lister illustrates how Palmer's intense inner life shaped landscapes of dreamlike, luminous beauty that continue to captivate collectors and art lovers alike. This is an essential volume for anyone with a serious interest in British Romantic art and the lives of its greatest practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888032100571,"sku":"2026100006740-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/8479f93a-6a16-47f2-90f3-d59ca5be154c.png?v=1781753440","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006740-secondhand-samuel-palmer-a-biography","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
