IMPRESSIONISM
ANGELA SANNA Book Number: 77479 Product format: Hardback

A super heavyweight luxurious tome, 11¾" square, showcasing the very best of the Impressionism art movement. Degas, a painter of everyday life with cafés and concerts in Paris or his bronze of the little 14 year old dancer, The Tub, nudes or his superbly rendered horses in The Parade and The Race Track, ordinary women in The Millinery Shop, Renoir's depiction of feminine beauty and the countryside, Dance at the Moulin de la Galette, Bazille's Family Gathering, Sisley's and Pissarro's impressionistic countrysides, cityscapes and Gustav Caillebotte's almost photographic depictions of street scenes and people are all faithfully reproduced. Among the more colourful and exotic examples are Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida's portraits of a Hussar or A Couple in Old Fashioned Valencian Costume, Ramon Casas's bicycling gentlemen and the realistic portraiture of the talented Valentin Serov. Some of his portraits are blown up in fine close detail for us to enjoy further and marvel at the skill required in this style of painting. Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent and the Pointillism of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac and others are also explored in full. A heavyweight (over 3kg) Scala publication, dripping with glamorous colour.
