A.J. Munnings by Stanley Booth

Sir Alfred Munnings was a major figure in the great tradition of British horse painters. Famously prolific, controversial and immensely successful, the son of an East Anglian Miliner, he rose to become a popular scourge of modern art as President of the Royal Academy, Munnings was one of the great English characters of the last century. This is a unique appreciation of a highly collectible artist's work.
Stanley Booth, who introduces this selection of fifty of Munnings' most beautiful and representative works, has lived in Dedham since 1943. After the artist's death in 1959 he helped Lady Munnings to open Castle House to the public and set up the trusts which administer the Sir Alfred Munnings Museum, of which he is a trustee.
