Tom Early: The Catalogued Work

Catalogue raisonné of the self-taught Tom Early who became part of the St Ives art colony in the late-1940s and 1950s. Encouraged by Ben Nicholson, he first exhibited with Denis Mitchell and became a member of the Penwith Society of Artists. This catalogue, compiled by Michael Miller, records around 150 paintings, works on paper and sculpture. Denys Wilcox reveals Tom Early to be a rare visionary artist with a profound poetic gift.
