5.0 out of 5 stars A must for Morisot fans, April 18, 2005

This review is from: Berthe Morisot, Impressionist (Hardcover)
This is the best kind of art book: it has both serious, informative text and loads of glorious color pictures. The two authors both write in a readable style and break up their essays into sections on Morisot's life and "style and technique". Morisot is treated as a respected artist throughout--there's none of that annoying "imitator-of-Manet" stuff--and the authors objectively explore the question of how much of an innovator she may have been. I've read many books on Morisot, and this is perhaps my favorite. A good companion to the "style and technique" section is a book called "Impressionists--Side by Side", which shows in more detail how Morisot's work compares with Renoir's and Cassatt's.
