Lucian Freud

New single-volulme edition

The career of Lucian Freud (1922-2011), exceptional British artist, covers more than seven decades. The artist worked until his last day, leaving unfinished the portrait of David Dawson, his friend and assistant.

This two-volume book presents several hundred paintings, drawings, sketches and prints realized by the artist from the 1930s until his death in 2011, and also excerpts of his correspondence. The beauty of Freud's work is evoked through portraits of Freud's friends and family, his lovers, his neighbours, and others whose looks he liked, from his bookmaker to a bank robber.
