In this review I discuss from a theoretical point of view the magnetic fields seen at the solar (stellar) surface. Since magnetic field lines have no ends, and the photospheric fields are mostly vertical, the discussion necessarily includes some of the properties of the fields above and below the photosphere. A more general discussion of the theory of solar magnetic fields can be found in Priest (1982).
