Lucian Freud:
Catalogue Raisonné of the Oil Paintings​

Modern Art Press, 2025

​​

Summary​

• A record of all of Lucian Freud’s oil paintings – more than 500, almost all reproduced in colour – in four volumes. 

• Catherine Lampert and Toby Treves draw on their research and knowledge of Freud’s oeuvre to provide new analysis of the paintings.

• Separate entries on each work provide essential information, provenance, and history of exhibitions and literature, followed by individual commentaries.

• The catalogue contains essays by three distinguished contributors, the critic and Freud specialist Sebastian Smee, the National Portrait Gallery research fellow Jacob Simon, and the curator and art historian Colin Wiggins.

• A chronology of Freud’s life and work, comprehensive lists of solo and group exhibitions, and a bibliography provide a full overview of Freud’s career and critical responses to it, making this catalogue raisonné indispensable for research.
