Interpreting Cézanne
|
|
|
|
by Paul Smith
|
It is a joy to come across a clear & concise way of
interpreting Cézanne's paintings & the thoughts & ideas of the
painter. The book is devoid of arty gobbledegook. Paul Smith, who is
a lecturer in the history of art at the University of Bristol,
goes on to explain Cézanne's techniques & the way he applied
his patches of colour with tactile representation. Cézanne
was heavily influenced by the French historian Hippolyte Taine.
53 colour & 7 B/W illustrations.

The Artistic Anatomy Of Trees, Their Structure & Treatment In Painting
|
|
|
|
by Rex Vicat Cole
|
I bought this book in the late 1970s, spending the train fare home.
Turned out to be a twelve mile hike!
It has an excellent detailed text with 515 illustrations by the
distinguished landscape painter Rex Vicat Cole.
The book is of immense value to beginner, amateur & professional
artist alike.

Degas: His Life, Times & Work |
|
|
|
by Roy McMullen |
Written by the author of Victorian Outsider : A Biography of Whistler.
Roy McMullen's book quotes extensively from Degas' notebooks written
in 1867 where he writes his ideas & techniques, correspondence to &
from his friends. All this & his life in Paris all make for an excellent
biography. Degas greatly admired & collected the works of Poussin.
