Items related to Stanley Spencer
Stanley Spencer (1891-1959) is one of the outstanding painters of the twentieth century. Highly controversial and single-minded in the pursuit of his personal vision, he often suffered neglect and hostility; ultimately, he has tended to be seen as an eccentric visionary. However, his contribution to British art and his true stature as an artist are now recognized internationally.
Keith Bell's comprehensive catalogue raisonné of Spencer's work was recognized as a major contribution to Spencer studies when it was published in 1992, and it remains the essential reference work. This monograph is wonderfully presented, bearing an appealing aesthetic that matches the distinctive style of the artist whose work it projects.

Review:
'There can be no question that this unusually handsome, well illustrated and meticulously researched volume will be the point of departure for all subsequent evaluations of Spencer.' (The Times)
Synopsis:
An account of the life and career of Stanley Spencer, which examines his highly personal philosophy, his eroticism and religiosity in the context of his paintings. This book catalogues and illustrates nearly 500 paintings, the full Spencer canon.
