Softcover, 125 pages, b&w illustrations. Light rubbing to wrappers. Else a very clean, tight copy. Issued in conjunction with a 1984 exhibition of drawings by Hudson River School artist Frederic Edwin Church (1826-1900). With an essay by Elaine Evans Dee and foreword by Rick Beard. The annotated and illustrated catalogue presents 107 works. This is the only publication that examines in detail the preparatory studies of this master Hudson River School artist. Shows Church's drawings that were intended to provide preliminary detail for his oil paintings. The extensive notations on the drawings themselves are clear evidence of this intent. This provides a special insight into the processes of artistic creation as employed by one of 19th century American's greatest landscape painters. Record # 401822.
