Fairfield Porter (1907-1975) is one of the great American artists of the post-war period. His work is widely loved for its lyricism and apparently realist subject matter: still lifes, portraits, interiors and landscapes. Yet he was as concerned with colour, light, paint handling and composition as the Abstract Expressionists. This volume documents every known painting by Porter - more than 1300 in all. Essays by leading authorities place the work in the context of Porter's biography and ideology.
