5.0 out of 5 stars
A great book on a quite unknown artist,
By Xaryan "xaryan" (Madrid, Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Evelyn de Morgan: Oil paintings (Paperback)
The book covers the life, works and art of Evelyn Pickering De Morgan, a Pre-Raphaelite woman artist who, shamefully, is not widely known to the public. The book qualifies as a catalogue of almost all of De Morgan's paintings.
The book contents are: - Preface, by Catherine Gordon. - Chronology - Provisional catalogue and chronology of oil paintings (some include a brief comment related to the painting) - Works exhibited during Evelyn De Morgan's lifetime (list) - Evelyn De Morgan and spiritualism, by Judy Oberhausen (very informative review) - Evelyn De Morgan's use of literary sources in her paintings, by Patricia Yates (detailed text providing insight to De Morgan's choice of subject for her paintings) - A horror of war, by Judy Oberhausen - Bibliography - Plates (70 colour plates, 7 black&white plates. All printed in glossy paper of excellent quality). Texts (95 pages) are good, and plates (all 77 plates, in 77 pages) excellent. |
