Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover book. Green cloth, blue & color illus. dust jacket, xiii, 223 pp. 47 bw, 150 color plates. Contents as follows: 1. "A Taste Awakened": The American Watercolor Movement in Brooklyn / Linda S. Ferber -- 2. The Exhibition Watercolor in America / Barbara Dayer Gallati -- 3. The Power of Patronage: William Trost Richards and the American Watercolor Movement / Linda S. Ferber -- 4. Watercolors by Winslow Homer at the Brooklyn Museum of art / Linda S. Ferber -- 5. Controlling the Medium: The Marketing of John Singer Sargent's Watercolors / Barbara Dayer Gallati -- 6. Language, Watercolor, and the American way / Barbara Dayer Gallati -- 7.

Less often displayed than oils because of their sensitivity to light, watercolors nevertheless have enjoyed a lively, complex history. Illuminating well-known works as well as many that have never before been reproduced, Masters of Color and Light showcases an array of paintings that range far beyond watercolor's early reputation as the "lighter and daintier" medium. …
