{"product_id":"harry-kernoff-kevin-oconnor-9781838359324","title":"Harry Kernoff: The Little Genius","description":"This revised paperback edition of \u003ci\u003eHarry Kernoff: The Little Genius\u003c\/i\u003e updates the first full-length biography of one of Ireland's leading artists. Born in London, Harry Kernoff moved to Dublin in 1914 and from 1923 until his death in 1974 was a full-time artist when it was neither 'profitable nor fashionable'. Against the odds, Harry Kernoff has left a more encompassing visual record of the Irish experience during the twentieth century than any contemporary painter through his empathic interest in the ordinary people, and especially rank-and-file Dubliners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKevin O'Connor provides a revealing look at an extraordinary artist, emphasising Kernoff's humanity, his art and his prolific output.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist and writer John Ryan says that Kernoff \"issued a continuous flow of paintings of the great, the curious, the famous and the notorious.... No metropolis was ever better served by a graphic recorder: He is our Boswell in paint.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe value of Kernoff's work has risen dramatically in recent years, as has his reputation. This lavishly illustrated paperback edition is a fitting tribute to an exceptional artist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"... fans of Kernoff, old and new, will be delighted to see his work gathered in one place and in such a beautifully produced volume.\" - Katrina Goldstone, \u003ci\u003eThe Irish Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin O'Connor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 183835932X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781838359324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liffey Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Kevin O'Connor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453934547199,"sku":"9781838359324","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cbb758fa-b8bb-44ae-beb6-46200a0c02a5.jpg?v=1777303121","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/harry-kernoff-kevin-oconnor-9781838359324","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
