Whistler: Landscapes and Seascapes (Watson-Guptill Famous Artists)
By Donald Holden.
Description
This book reexamines the colorful American artist's all-but-forgotten role as "midwife at the birth of abstract painting". In text that sparkles with the painter's own vivid epigrams, the author documents how Whistler's unorthodox pictorial design and his new vision of space set the stage for geometric abstraction in 20th century art. 32 full-page color reproductions. - from Amzon
