Fried Eggs in Brine by Paul Slater

An illustrated nonsense book: "The drawings and paintings in Fried Eggs in Brine show us, if we needed to be shown, that things don´t come much dafter than war. They also demonstrate that the necessarily palatable nature, of much of Slater´s commissioned work, is only part of the picture." Robert Mason Paul Slater is one of Britain´s most popular and highly regarded artist / illustrators. He has been described as a great example of an illustrator whose work exudes personal authorship with original perceptions and intelligence. Paul works in the traditional pictorial way, employing formidable draughtsmanship and academic painting skills.
