Hardcover, xvii + 218pp + 16 pages of glossy colour plates, numerous b&w images in text, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound.

It is considered a major contribution to the study of contemporary Portuguese and British feminist art.…
