Two hands hold up a softcover book. The cover is sage green, with a painting of a person in a wheat field. They wear a green shirt and a long beige skirt. They wipe their eyes with the back of their hand.

This publication coincides with the exhibition Lewis Welden Hawkins: Shades of Grey held at the Owens Art Gallery from 8 January to 14 February 2010.

Shades of Grey brings together ten paintings by French painter Louis Welden Hawkins (1849-1910), all from the original Owens collection that was acquired in Europe in the late Nineteenth century.

The publication includes a foreword by Gemey Kelly, essay by Anne Koval, and an analysis of The Departure by Jane Tisdale.
