  The first volume in over 20 years dedicated to Bacon's unconventional, psychologically trenchant portraits
  
  Featuring works from the 1950s onward, this book explores the genre-defying portraiture of Irish British artist Francis Bacon (1909-92). It is the first publication in over 20 years dedicated to this facet of Bacon's practice. From his responses to portraiture by earlier artists to large-scale paintings memorializing lost lovers, these selected works showcase Bacon's life story. In addition to the artist's self-portraits, sitters include Lucian Freud, Isabel Rawsthorne and his lovers Peter Lacy and George Dyer.
  From his renowned triptychs and paintings of ghostly figures to tender and psychologically revealing individual portraits, the figurative works displayed in this publication chart the development of a groundbreaking artist, highlighting the influence of his peers and other artists. Francis Bacon: Human Presence also features illustrated biographies of Bacon and his circle, bringing lesser-told stories to the fore.

  Edvard Munch Portraits brings together 80 of Munch's most significant portraits, showcasing the wide array of styles, techniques and mediums that he employed.
  
  Edvard Munch (1863 - 1944) is widely regarded as one of the great artists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Although he was lesser known for portraiture, his portraits were central to his art and vision. During the course of his long life he made hundreds of portraits of friends, patrons, models and above all himself, in a range of media that encompassed painting, drawing and print.
  
  Edvard Munch Portraits explores the range of portraits Munch created during his lifetime, and by placing his work in the cultural and historical background of his period, provides readers with a greater understanding of the time in which his works were produced. This publication gives deep insight into the artist's family and bohemian social circles, along with his German and Norwegian patrons and the friends who helped establish his reputation.
