The book in question is an illustrated dictionary by Robert Cumming; it does not include an illustration for Bomberg.

David Bomberg : landscape
Bomberg, who died in 1957, is now sadly out of fashion. One of my art-reference books states that after a brief phase when he pioneered Cubism in Britain he changed style and then produced 'gloomy, minor Expressionist paintings'. I am not sure which category the illustration below falls into: words like 'major', 'evocative' , and 'haunting' come readily to my mind.
