Stephen Farthing
(b. 1950)
 

Stephen Farthing RA  is an English painter and writer of art history.
Farthing described his work in a 2005 interview, saying "I have dined with the devil in terms of becoming a modern artist. I have taken hold of history, tried to understand it—and then used and abused it."
