Keith Vaughan: The Mature Oils 1946-1977
A commentary and catalogue raisonné
by Anthony Hepworth and Ian Massey
270mm x 250mm Hardback, 208pp with 400 illustrations
Published by Sansom & Company, September 2012
"The Mature Oils has been prepared by the art dealer Anthony Hepworth and features an engaging critical essay by the art historian Ian Massey, placing Vaughan's iconography in its biographical context. It provides a meticulous catalogue of more than 600 oil paintings, including provenance and exhibition histories, with short informative texts on many of the entries, as well as a fascinating archive interview by Ken Baynes originally published in 1961 in ARK, the journal of the Royal College of Art. The book is set to become an essential reference tool, even if it cannot hope to be definitive, since some paintings in Vaughan's record books have been untraceable, and the artist occasionally painted new works over old. Where possible, every work is illustrated with a small colour or black-and-white image, punctuated with larger reproductions of the most significant paintings."

"Hepworth and Massey have scrupulously compiled a useful catalogue raisonné of the mature oils, charting at a glance Vaughan's erratic and revisionary progress from unconvinced Neo-Romanticism to several forms of pure abstraction, and between."
