The first monograph and only substantial publication on the work of
Patrick George (born 1923), this book will reveal to a largely
unsuspecting public the lyrical paintings of a rare and original
talent. George is better known as a teacher; he taught for forty
years at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College, London
before eventually becoming Director there. He has only shown his
work infrequently, yet perceptive commentators have identified him
as a School of London painter, to be viewed in the same context as
Lucian Freud (a friendly rival), Frank Auerbach (a strong supporter
of George's work), and Euan Uglow (George's close friend and
colleague). For too long dismissed as a follower of Coldstream,
Patrick George is in fact very much his own man, a Northern
European landscape and figure painter, working in the tradition of
Gainsborough and Constable. In this book, his unique contribution
to the development of contemporary landscape painting is for the
first time examined and evaluated.
