Illustration is the most accessible visual artform and one that is used in all aspects of life; as Quentin Blake says, 'it is, if you like, a vernacular; it's a language that everybody understands. They may look at it and not think that they're looking at art, but it's having the effect on them of art. It's a language that everybody can read, so to speak.' The work here shows Quentin using this vernacular to great effect and for very different purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson","offers":[{"title":"Quentin \/ Blake","offer_id":55361413054837,"sku":"9780500966389","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9780500966389.jpg?v=1746885358","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.pro\/products\/9780500966389","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
