Review
Andrew Lambirth writes: Rosenthal has done his subject proud. This rich and stimulating book is a fitting tribute to an artist of considerable complexity. --The Spectator, 4 December 2010
Tom Rosenthal's book, colloquial and lively, brings out Lowry's robust eccentricity and takes us close to the man himself. --Daily Mail - Christmas Books 10 December 2010
Gerald Isaman writes: Rosenthal's brilliant book provides so much to ponder, appreciate and enjoy about an iconic artist who in many respects, remains an enigma. --Camden New Journal 3 March 2011
Mr Rosenthal is a skilled and persuasive writer and he has produced a beautiful and important book. --The Literary Review February 2011

Format:Hardcover
This long-awaited and beautifully-produced 360pp book from Tom Rosenthal who has been studying Lowry's paintings for over fifty years, is a must for everyone enthusiastic about Lowry's work who wants to see his full range, understand about his technique and his influences and read more about his extraordinary life. The author knew Lowry well, interviewed him for the BBC and discussed his work with key critics such as Sir Herbert Read, E.H. Gombrich and Sir John Rothenstein.
There are over 200 wonderful colour illustrations which I've been feasting on. Some of them have never been reproduced before. There are also many drawings and archive photographs and a useful guide to the public collections where you can see Lowry's paintings 'in the paint'.
Altogether a wonderful present to give to a friend - or to onself!
