Including many previously unpublished paintings, this five-volume set allows Bacon’s oeuvre to be seen and assessed in its entirety for the first time, with all works reproduced in full color.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 raisonné 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 \u003ci\u003eFrancis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné\u003c\/i\u003e, the painter’s entire oeuvre can be seen and assessed for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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 \u003ci\u003eFrancis Bacon: Catalogue Raisonné\u003c\/i\u003e are boxed within a handsome cloth slipcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Estate of Francis Bacon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47028895678704,"sku":"9780956927316","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780956927316_p0.jpg?v=1763873083","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780956927316","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
