Being a slight collection of some of the artist's many paintings, together with minimal text. It's not a bad introduction and would also befit a collector who wants basic coverage of a broad range of artists in an art library. It's mostly for browsers ultimately.

Whistler was the son of a railway engineer, born in Lowell, Massachusetts, but throughout his life he pretended to be a Southern gentleman. He was, in most imaginable ways, self-invented. Like West, he was irked by the low status America accorded its artists. His solution was not to attach himself to a court, as West did, but to depart for Paris and London and pretend to be a native aristocrat from an America he would never revisit. Perhaps his fixation on rank was impressed early: he was partly raised in Russia, where his father was designing the St. Petersburg-Moscow railway for Czar Nicholas I. A must-have book for art lovers and particularly fans of James McNeill Whistler. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
