Amazing Photo-realistic Artwork,
By Angel Lee "Liocorno Amethyst Moonstone" (Cleveland, OH United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Aviation: A History Through Art (Hardcover)
This is a book of vibrant new aviation art from the American Society of Aviation Artists. There are 112 paintings by 32 artists mostly done from 1975-1990. Each is a full page in brilliant color on heavy stock. The paintings are arranged chronologically by subject matter from World War I to the Space Shuttle. Here you will find most of history's famous aircraft as well as some of the most rare and unusual.The style of these paintings is photo-realistic and highly detailed. Each is historically accurate and the complete story behind the painting is given on the opposite page. Information on the artists is also included. This is a great book for the student of aviation history as well as the art fan. The plates would look great framed if you could bear to remove them from the book.

This review is from: Aviation: A History Through Art (Hardcover)
Great variety. Good write ups that let you get to know the artists. Lots of great work is out there from the American Association of Aviation Artists. This allows you see some of it.It is about time for Volume Two.
