The rich layers of symbolism and allusion that characterise his work have proved especially fascinating to scholars. Franny Moyle traces and analyses the life and work of an extraordinary artist against the backdrop of an era of political turbulence and cultural transformation, to which his art offers a subtle and endlessly refracting mirror. ![]() English | ASIN: B09XFDJGLN | 2022 | 7 hours and 52 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 216 MB Kindness and leadership aren't often synonymous.
