Winslow Homer and the Pictorial Press

Rating:
Summary: A work of impeccible scholarship
Review: A work of impeccible scholarship by David Tatham (Professor Emeritus of Fine Arts at Syracuse University), Winslow Homer And The Pictorial Press presents an informed and informative text which is enhanced with black-and-white reproductions of the art of Winslow Homer. One of the best-known American painters of the nineteenth century, Professor Tatham provides extensive insights into Homer's career, and how he necessarily relied on his great artistic skill and talent to make ends meet. Accurately portraying all sides of American life as experienced and interpreted by Homer, Winslow Homer And The Pictorial Press is commended as an especially thoughtfully written work and an outstanding contribution to American Art History and American Publishing History reference collections.
