Description: Many illustration books have minimal or no information surrounding their pictures. Understanding Illustration shows a selection of work by 37 artists with an analytical and much more in-depth approach, showing how illustrators communicate through their images in order to narrate a story or stimulate thought. Meaning Through Illustration offers both glorious images as well as informative text, including a summary of the artist along with an explanation of the ideas behind the work and an insight into how the image communicates its message. A much more comprehensive and informative book on illustration than other books on the market.
