South from Ephesus Brian Sewell is a frequent visitor to Turkey, here eloquently interweaves autobiographical observations with his captivation of the Aegean splendour of his favourite nation. Originally published in 1988 in a mutilated edition, he has now reshaped this superlative travelbook that no fan of his will want to miss, into the book he original intended it to be. Includes 3 maps of Turkey. |

Roy Petley Acclaimed as one of Europe's leading impressionist painters, Roy Petley has come a very long way since the 1970's when he showed his work on the railings of Green Park in London. Several fine paintings are illustrated in Brian Sewell's biography of the artist published in 2000. |

The Beaulieu Encyclopedia of the Automobile: Coachbuilding There are several Georgano tombs that are noteworthy and valuable resources. This book is a supplemental addition to a two-volume encyclopedia entitled The Beaulieu Encyclopedia of the Automobile. This volume is also a stand-alone book, and would enhance any collection regardless of whether the complete encyclopedia is held. At that price, it may behoove the reader to “interlibrary loan” a copy of Coachbuilding through your local library, for review before deciding to buy. It is a hardcover, 200-page edition weighing four pounds, in an 11.2 x 8.8 x 1.3-inch format. It does include bibliographical references. |

An Alphabet of Villains A collection of more than 100 reviews and articles about 20th century artists by Brian Sewell, art critic for "The Evening Standard". Originally published as "The Reviews That Caused the Rumpus", this is a revised edition which also features the best of Sewell's work. |
||
The Reviews That Caused the Rumpus: And Other Pieces To many people, the "Evening Standard" art critic, Brian Sewell, is the most well-informed, articulate and consistently direct of contemporary art critics, a man who gives praise when he thinks it is due but who does not equivocate in his condemnation of the second-rate. Such people enjoy his prose and revere him as a lone voice in an otherwise crazy world. For others, principally members of the contemporary art establishment, Sewell's reviews frequently deride their art and the exhibitions they put on. |

Vermeer (Mini Albums) Johannes Vermeer of Delft (1632-1673) was one of the most talented painters of the Dutch Golden Age; yet there is very little substantiated information on this artist's life. In his introductory essay Brian Sewell discusses the mystery and the magic of Vermeer, also writing about Delft, the city of Vermeer's birth, working life and death, and its particular and peculiar position as an art centre, parochial in comparison with Amsterdam. Vermeer's techniques, pigments, his possible use of the camera obscura and his training and influences are also discussed. Brian Sewell takes the reader through the genres of paintings - the single figure in an interior, pictures that contain two or more figures and their greater pictorial complexity, and Vermeer's allegorical paintings. He explains the difficulties there are with attribution and the chronology of his paintings with so few signed or dated. |
