Overview

This landmark publishing event presents the entire oeuvre of Bacon's paintings for the first time in a deluxe five-volume boxed set

Editor Martin Harrison, following his appointment by the Estate of Francis Bacon, has devoted over a decade to the creation of this magnificent publication, the first-ever complete catalogue raisonn of the work of the great British painter. Including many previously unpublished paintings, this five-volume set allows Bacon's oeuvre to be seen and assessed in its entirety for the first time, with all works reproduced in full color. The only previous Bacon catalogue raisonn was published in 1964, gathering only 37% of Bacon's ultimate oeuvre, and featuring only 27 color reproductions. Only about half of the 584 paintings that survive are accessible to the public in exhibitions and publications; with Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonn , the painter's entire oeuvre can be seen and assessed for the first time.

The catalogue, containing around 800 illustrations across five clothbound, hardcover volumes, includes three books comprising the study of Bacon's entire working history, which are bookended by two further volumes: the first including an introduction, chronology and an indispensible index and users' guide, and the second a catalogue of Bacon's sketches with an illustrated bibliography. Beautifully produced and printed, the five volumes of Francis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonn are boxed within a handsome cloth slipcase.
