Item description from seller

232 S. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - "A painting should be invention," Fletcher Martin has said, and his own works bear out this credo with versatility, imaginativeness, and originality. Martin has been a major voice in American art for more than forty years. Never photographically "real" or academically constrained, his paintings, drawings, and graphics possess an earthy vigor that is uniquely American and essentially of their time. The sensitive realism of his canvases, whether they deal with country dancers or prize fighters, children playing or bull fighters, card players or folksingers, circus figures or beautiful women, beach scenes or racing horses, fills the pages of this handsome volume with visual excitement. The late H. Lester Cooke, Jr., was Curator of Painting at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the author of important books and articles on European and American painting, and a well-known artist in his own right. His persuasive text, written from the standpoint of both artist and art historian, provides sensitive insights into Martin's work. The illustrations cover every aspect of Fletcher Martin's art, and include many of his sensuous portraits and dynamic book illustrations. This full-scale study devoted to the artist is further enhanced by a biographical outline, a bibliography, and an index.
