This stunning over-sized monograph of work by artist Morgan Bulkeley includes an inspiring essay by Geoffrey Young and 35 color plates. The son of a naturalist, and himself a lifelong devotee of bird and free-range beast, Bulkeley has a well-developed sense of the fragile balance in which nature and man co-exist. His pictures are plausible fictions, fantasies in condensed form linking his great, robust feeling for the environment to the vagaries of his own personal life. His bright palette celebrates the role of light falling on every thing, including human foible, and of our sometimes capacity to see.

Morgan Bulkeley has been exhibiting his paintings and sculpture nationally for the last thirty years. In 1987, The DeCordova Museum installed a twenty year retrospective of his work. At present, he shows at the Howard Yezerski Gallery, in Boston, where he lived until 1985. For the past fifteen years he has been living and working in Western Massachusetts.
