TRIPTYCH: THREE STUDIES AFTER FRANCIS BACON
London England: Nottinghill Editions 2013. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Fine/No Dust Jacket As Issued. London England: Nottinghill Editions 2013. Hardcover. Fine/None As Issued. First Edition/First Printing. 113 pages. Collection of essays on subject. One of Jonathan Littell's finest achievements. The first and only edition. Published in a tiny print run as a hardcover original only. Without DJ as issued. Presents Jonathan Littell's "Triptych: Three Studies After Francis Bacon". Three exquisite masterly essays on possibly the greatest British portrait painter - and one of the iconic figures of Modern Art. "Jonathan Littell the author of the controversial novel 'The Kindly Ones' helps us to understand what we experience when we stand before a Bacon painting. A populist art critic in the tradition of Robert Hughes and Simon Schama Littell reveals the life behind the art: Bacon's Irish childhood his obsession with Velazquez and the catastrophe of his lover George Dyer's suicide inspiring his most famous triptych. Always in the background is the author himself: Haunting a Bacon Exhibition at the Prado tracking down Bacon's sources sitting in a cafe and thinking about how we see. In this gem-like meditation on one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century Littell has made art criticism a living story" Publisher's blurb. An absolute "must-have" title for Francis Bacon and Jonathan Littell collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws "Very Good". This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. One of the best books on the art and achievement of the greatest British painter of the 20th century. A fine copy. . ISBN 1907903585. Nottinghill Editions hardcover

Norman Library Christie's sale Part II June 15 & 16 1998: "The Advancement of learning was the first of two works in which Bacon expounded his philosophy of scientific method. It was expanded and latinized as De augmentis scientiarum in 1623. "In the Twoo bookes Bacon concerned himself primarily with the classification of philosophy and the sciences and with developing his influential view of the relation between science and theology" Norman. It was the only work Bacon ever published in English."<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> The second volume bound-in The Essayes or Covnsels Civill and Morall. 1639 has the title in a woodcut border. First published in 1597 this work is the enlarged edition and perhaps the most widely read work of Bacon. "Some of the essays deal with policy for princes and men in high position. A number however are written from the viewpoint of those seeking advancement in life. Bacon proffers concise advice and judgements on civil business situations conduct and the weighing of character and motives. The work's appeal is due to the pragmatic intelligence and knowledge informing its observations which are expressed in a style employing striking images apt examples and quotations and pithy aphorisms" Zagorin p. 141. Henrie Tomes (and) Printed by Iohn Beale unknown
