This catalogue reveals the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Essex through its 59 public collections and their 2,135 oil paintings. Whilst there is much to admire amongst the county's paintings from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it is the twentieth century works that stand out. These include 638 works in oil by Sir Alfred Munnings at his house in Dedham, 60 by the north-west Essex artists in the Fry Gallery at Saffron Walden and the largest collection of publicly owned Latin American contemporary art in Europe at the University of Essex.
