To the John Minton exhibition at the Pallant in Chichester (and to the retrospective of the work of our friend Mick Csaky, who was partially – and brilliantly – responsible for the design of the first grey Persephone book back in 1998). Apple Orchard Kent is a 1951 John Minton lithograph which is particularly appropriate for the end of August: it will be a good apple crop in the UK this year.
