What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

An elegant gift book celebrating all the joys of autumn, spanning several centuries, and featuring a wide variety of works from the Tate collection

Following Tate's recent Winter publication, this new selection of works examines some of the most beautiful, transformative, and amusing expressions of the autumn season drawn from Tate's collection. Divided into key themes--"Fields of Gold," "A Bountiful Harvest," "Leisure," "Symbolism," "Bump in the Night," and "Abstraction"--this little book considers how the traditional season of harvest and falling leaves has influenced artists over centuries.
Works of art--including paintings, drawings, sculptures, illustrations, and installations--are punctuated by brief captions adding background detail or additional information about the art, the artists, and their subjects. Featured artists include Barbara Hepworth, Salvador Dalí, John Singer Sargent, Paula Rego, and Edward Burra.
Sometimes traditional, sometimes contemporary, often beautiful, and occasionally telling, placed together these beautiful images create a fascinating journey through the visual portrayal of autumn in Western art.
