Mary Cassatt(1980年Perseus出版的圖書)

內容簡介

These paintings and prints by the American artist are among thefinest examples of Impressionism. Mary Cassatt's paintings andprints have long been treasured as some of the finest examples ofImpressionist art. A rebel by the Victorian standards of her time,Mary Cassatt moved from the art schools of staid Philadelphia tothe boulevards of Paris, where the young Impressionist movement wasflourishing. Degas, her friend and mentor, encouraged herinvolvement in the new art movement. Cassatt's luminous, observant,and innovative works-chiefly interiors with women andchildren-helped define Impressionism and have been compared toRaphael's paintings for their beauty and dignity. Frank Getlein,noted art critic and historian, has selected 72 of Cassatt's finestworks, each reproduced here in full color. His accompanying textrelates the intimate details of her life to her paintings whileclearly defining her relation to fellow artists and her place inmodern art. The publication of this book marks the first time thatso many of Cassatt's paintings and prints, some rarely seen byAmerican audiences, have been made available at a popular price.ILLUSTRATIONS 72 full colour
