It is a PHOTOCOPY of the original 1960 book. Even "blank" pages were photocopied, and the dark edges of the blank page are visible. It was obviously copied from yellowing or less-than-white pages as well, because there is sort of a gray mushy-ness around all the text. These things thoroughly distract me from simply reading and enjoying the content.

I'm returning this travesty and ordering an original 1960 paperback, available in a separate listing here at Amazon.

Incredibly inspiring. The very best for any, and all artists and creative souls. I am an artist, and I have read and re-read this little book so many times that I have now had to re- purchase my third. Do yourself a favor and purchase it ....AND read it...you will never be sorry.

What great insights and advice! Henri's work really moves the world of art into a personal and achievable dimension. He feels like a regular guy, a product of the previous century with a real and genuine approach.

Henri would not relate directly to his students while they were working; instead he would return to the classroom when it was empty, observe the various works of his students, and leave them notes to encourage and give direction to their work. Mostly these notes were poetic, metaphorical, oblique to the actual work. Henri, this great artistic soul, spoke through the work of his students, to the essential artist in them, deepening their connection to this in themselves and opening the doors for this essential artist to a truer expression. This book is a collection of those notes, to read cover to cover, or to open and read a page for insight into one's art or one's life. I myself have found that I have no apparent artistic ability, but through this much read and much appreciated little book, I have been made into an artist in my own inner and outer life and expression. I live a little deeper and with a greater clarity. My heart is opened with each reading. Every artist, philosopher and Lover of life should have the pleasure of this , the heart of Robert Henri.
