Francis Bacon (1909–1992) and Graham Sutherland (1903–1980) were both highly influential artists who represented modern British art, but their personalities were completely contrasting.

This book is the first to seriously address the interesting artistic dialogue that existed between these two.

The author, Martin Hammer, starting from the strong stylistic and thematic commonalities seen in the works of Bacon and Sutherland, and a series of letters Bacon wrote to Sutherland, analyzes from a rich and delicate perspective the dynamics of their relationship, their intertwined careers, and how they expressed their experiences of living through the era of World War II and the beginning of the Cold War in their works.

This is a valuable resource that is rarely available in Japan!
