Old Chesham – Paintings & Stories by George Bridges by Frances Mathew and Peter Hawkes
210 x 210mm and 108 pages in colour throughout.
117 beautiful paintings by the late George Bridges, with location maps.
George Bridges, born in 1892, created a remarkable collection of watercolours in his retirement, nearly all of them prompted by a nostalgia for the town he knew as a boy. Prior to his death in 1980 he cherished the ambition of preserving them in his own illustrated history of the town. His great-granddaughter Frances Mathew, along with local publisher Peter Hawkes, bring that vision to reality by publishing the artist’s works 40 years after his death.
