插畫家波西‧西蒙斯(Posy Simmonds)以其非常精確的繪畫、敏銳的觀察力和尖銳但溫和的幽默而聞名，這些特質使她成為一位享譽國際的藝術家。
本書從她的童年早期到現在檢視了西蒙斯的生活和作品，提供了對她創作過程的深入了解。作者Paul Gravett獲得了對她檔案的前所未有的訪問權限，包括她的素描本頁面以及罕見或從未見過的藝術作品。這本書呈現了西蒙斯的形象，強調了她作為當代英國社會的敏銳記錄者和評論家的角色——一位以罕見的洞察力和人性書寫和繪畫的故事作者。
Illustrator Posy Simmonds is known for her extraordinarily precise drawings, keen powers of observation, and sharp but well-tempered wit, all of which have made her an internationally renowned artist.
This generously illustrated book examines Simmonds’s life and work from early childhood to the present day, offering insights into her creative process. Paul Gravett has had unprecedented access to her archive and includes pages from her sketchbooks as well as rare or never-before-seen artwork. The portrait of Simmonds that emerges underlines her role as a keen chronicler and critic of contemporary British society―a storyteller who writes and illustrates with rare perception and humanity.
Posy Simmonds is one of the first titles in Thames & Hudson’s new The Illustrators series, which celebrates illustration as an art form. The book will appeal to the many fans of Simmonds’s work, and anyone interested in illustration will adore this unrivaled exploration of a sophisticated innovator.
