More About Lund Humphries

 

Lund Humphries has been a leading publisher of illustrated art books for over 60 years, with a particular reputation in the field of Modern British Art. The imprint has been part of the Ashgate Publishing Group since 1999.

The Lund Humphries list today encompasses books for art specialists, professionals and enthusiasts across the fine and applied arts and covering all periods. We publish a range of different types of art book, including artist monographs, illustrated surveys, art reference books and catalogues.

Our substantial list of publications on modern and contemporary British artists features high-quality illustrated books on Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson, Winifred Nicholson, Peter Blake, Patrick Caulfield, Mary Fedden and many other key names in the field, and we are always interested in hearing from artists and their estates and representatives with proposals for new books.

A number of our artist monographs have special editions incorporating an original limited-edition print created specially by the artist and packaged in a slipcase with the book.

Through our association with some of the leading printmakers, print galleries and print historians, we have a growing list of books in the history and practice of printmaking.

Lund Humphries is also the leading publisher of books on British sculpture, many of which are published in association with The Henry Moore Foundation.

As a pioneer of museum co-publications in the 1980s, Lund Humphries now regularly publishes in association with some of the major museums and galleries worldwide, and we welcome proposals for publications related to exhibitions or museum collections.
