Contents: This book, the
result of collaboration between Jacqueline Taber and
Julian Halsby, attempts to examine all aspects of
Lincoln Taber’s work, placing it in the context of late
twentieth-century academic and trompe d’oeil painting. A
detailed study of the life, training, influences and
friends is followed by a critical appreciation of his
work. A catalogue lists nearly 500 works; over 50 of
them are illustrated, with 30 of these in colour.
