Where Magic Wears a Red Hat
The Art of Stanley Murphy
Across a career that spanned more than fifty years, Stanley Murphy painted Martha's Vineyard with the exacting eye of a seasoned craftsman and the magical soul of a poet. Murphy captured the island's fishermen, selectmen, farmers, and tribal elders as well as its seas, stones, fields, flowers, fishes, cows, and dogs. This beautiful hard-cover book features 36 full color plates of Stan Murphy's island portraits, a foreword by collector and friend of the artist, Robert Doran, and an essay by author and professor Karal Ann Marling.
