Description and condition: Softcover, 4to, 231 pp., index, select bibliography, colour illustrations. Very good with nice clean pages throughout, a nice tight copy. Contents: 'This groundbreaking publication examines the exciting and controversial exchange of pictorial and aesthetic ideas that took place as British art adapted to modernity, and explores the rich interplay between the making, exhibiting and collecting of new figurative art... Including a number of less familiar works as well as stunning reproductions of some of the greatest masterpieces of the period, Degas, Sickert and Toulouse-Lautrec is both a work of scholarly importance and a visual feast.' |
