4.0 out of 5 stars
A must for every Texas art lover.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Texas Art and a Wildcatter's Dream: Edgar B. Davis and the San Antonio Art League (Joe & Betty Moore Texas Art) (Hardcover)
The book is an excellent resource for the emergence of Texas art and artists. The history is accurate and detailed and color plates of selected art pieces is excellent. One drawback is that the book focuses too much on one individual and not enough on the individual artists. The book's strongest attribute is how it places the "Davis Competitions" or "Wildflower Competitions" in historical context with regard to Texas art in the early 20th century.
