Where Magic Wears a Red Hat; the Art of Stanley Murphy 
Where Magic wears
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: its fishermen and selectmen and farmers and tribal elders; its seas and stones and fields and flowers; its fishes and cows and dogs. This beautiful hard-cover book features 36 full color plates of Stan Murphy's Island portraits as well as a foreword by collector and friend of the artist, Robert Doran and an essay by author and professor Karal Ann Marling.


Hardcover $50 (+ 5 % tax)

Special Limited Edition
The first 100 books are stamped with the artist's own hand-made wooden stamp - $200 each while supplies last.
