Description
First and only edition. A dictionary of 150 late-19th century painters, 125 from France and the remainder from elsewhere (including John Singer Sargent, still in his mid-20s). Although considered major artists at the time of this book's publication, virtually all of the subjects have been largely or utterly forgotten (none of the Impressionists or Post-Impressionists are included). Each entry comprises 2-3 pages of text, providing a short biography of the artist and enumerating his major works and accomplishments, as well as a full-page self-portrait. 512 pp. A LARGE-PAPER COPY ON JAPAN PAPER, and extremely rare as such. 4to. Bound in publisher's Japan-paper covered decorated boards. Minimal wear to extremities of binding, else FINE AND BRIGHT.
