Synopsis
From the front flap of this 317-page book: "The most eagerly awaited set of reproductions in art-book history: more than one hundred masterpieces of modern French painting from one of the world's most prestigious private art collections - The Barnes Foundation in Merion, Pennsylvania - are here published for the first time in full color. These paintings are the crown jewels of the extraordinary collection assembled in the early twentieth century by Dr. Albert C. Barnes, the bold and original collector who established the Foundation in 1922 as a school for the study of art and philosophy. Now, after six decades of limited access to visitors and a ban on color reproduction, the Barnes Foundation welcomes a wider audience through the publication of this magnificent volume. Manet, Renoir, Monet, Cezanne, van Gogh, Gauguin, Seurat, Toulouse-Lautrec, Rousseau, Soutine, La Fresnaye, Modigliani, Picasso, Braque, and Matisse: the list of artists gives only a hint of the splendors this book contains. Here are the major landmarks of modern art that many know of but few have seen, including twenty-four Renoirs encompassing the entire span of his career....thirty monumental Cezannes including the bather groups, landscapes, still lifes, and portraits.... Matisse's pivotal 'Bonheur de vivre', 'Three Sisters', 'Triptych', and world-famous 'Dance' mural.....the finest of van Gogh's six portraits of the postman.....Seurat's celebrated 'Models'.....the Duanier Rousseau's strange, unsettling 'Unpleasant Surprise'.....the tender portrait of young 'M Loulou' by Gauguin....a spectacular cluster of seven early Picassos. And this is only a taste of the exhilarating visual banquet offered in these pages."
