Jesus Wept / Arthur Wragg / 1st Edition / 1935 / Selwyn & Blount

"A Commentary in Black and White on Ourselves and Our World Today"

A stunning graphic work of British socialist/humanist pedigree. Wragg's stark poster-like graphic drawings represent a pre-War Britain that has lost its way. The simplified block-style chiaroscuro effects of these illustrations is incredibly powerful. Wragg was a sponsor of the Peace Pledge Union and a conscientious objector during World War II.
