He fell in love with British culture, especially the novels of Charles Dickens and George Eliot, and was inspired by the art he saw in London, including paintings by John Constable and John Everett Millais. These influences informed his ideals in profound ways and continued to affect the style of his radical, egalitarian paintings throughout his career. As well as focusing on the artist’s time in London in the 1870s, this lavishly illustrated publication explores Van Gogh’s lasting affect on the British art world, from the first 210 colour illustrations displays of his paintings before the First World War through 270 x 225 mm to the 1950s when his life and work became renowned as 224 pp an embodiment of embattled human creativity.

In 1958 his photograph The Guvnors – a portrait of a notorious Finsbury Park gang who were involved in the murder of a police officer – was published in the Observer, launching his career as a photojournalist.

Often ambitious in scale, Bowling’s work combines figuration, abstract elements, popular and autobiographical references, and demonstrates his interest in social and political imagery. Beginning with his figurative work created in the early 1960s, this book will trace the development of Bowling’s practice right up to his most recent work, illustrating his interest in surface textures, expansive fields of colour and the accrual of thickly built impasto – as well as his use of unusual mediums, such as metallic pigments and acrylic gels. Bowling’s contribution to modern art and his wide-reaching influence are further illuminated by a combination of insightful art-historical texts and contemporary artistic voices. Featuring iconic series – such as the ‘Map Paintings’ and the ‘Poured Paintings’ – alongside rarely seen works, this book is a feast of colour and texture that celebrates the quality and breadth of 120 colour illustrations Bowling’s long and distinguished career.
