Reviews

[Francine Apollo]

This book includes 48 full color reproductions of the work by women and men, so,me better known by name than others. Each work has a page of narrative discussing the artist, the subject, the method used and sometimes a bit of history.

I found this book very helpful. Highly recommended.

There is something contagious & captivating about impressionistic brushwork, and this book indulges in my fascination with it. Great color plates/reproductions and gorgeous paintings!!
