For more than two centuries, the Hamptons, the area found at the south eastern end of Long Island, has been home to a vibrant community of artists and writers, lured by the golden dunes, refreshing breezes, radiant landscapes and frequent visits from the Muse.

It was here that Winslow Homer painted bathers and strollers on the beach, and Walt Whitman began writing 'Letters From A Travelling Bachelor'. Lee Krasner created her 'Earth Series' in a cramped studio shared with her husband Jackson Pollock, while F Scott Fitzgerald, Herman Melville, Betty Friedan and Frank O'Hara are just a few of the gifted figures to draw inspiration from this famous and fashionable retreat.

Richly illustrated with archival photos and reproductions of the artists' work, 'Hamptons Bohemia' chronicles the evolution of a community and the colourful characters that have inhabited it.
