First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. New Haven: Yale University Press / Santa Barbara Museum of Art, 2013. First edition. First printing. Hardcover. Very Fine, issued without a dust jacket. A pristine unread copy, still in publisher's original shrink-wrap. Publisher's original dark color-illustrated boards with white lettering. Octavo, 165 pages on heavy stock, with 45 color plates. DELACROIX AND THE MATTER OF FINISH accompanied exhibitions of the same title held in Santa Barbara, California, and Birmingham, Alabama, between October 2013 and May 2014. The catalogue presents the discovery of a major painting by Eugène Delacroix an easel-size variation of The Last Words of Marcus Aurelius, authenticated and curated by Eik Kahng. The book also examines the artist's lifelong struggle with the idea of "finish." Critics often charged that Delacroix was incapable of bringing his canvases to full completion, but Kahng's study reconsiders that claim by asking whether smaller versions of known monumental works were preparatory, retrospective, or commemorative. A complex and beautifully illustrated catalogue that redefines the painter's technique and artistic legacy. YALE.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dark, color-illus. boards with white lettering. 165 pp. with 45 color plates. Very nice, thick paper. Catalogue which accompanied the exhibitions of the same title in Santa Barbara, California and Birmingham, Alabama, between October 2013 and May 2014. A complex catalogue/exhibition with two purposes: first, the discovery and viewing of a major painting by Delacroix, an easel-size variation of The Last Words of Marcus Aurelius, of which Dr. Kahng was both authenticator and curator. Second, the matter of the finishing of Delacroix's paintings. Critics maintained that he was "incapable of bringing his canvases to a sufficient state of finish. His ideas, while often engaging and original, were therefore just that - ideas that he was technically incapable of realizing through the painter's usual illusionistic meanns.But how are we to to classify smaller-scale versions of known, monumental canvases? How are we to determine if they are preparatory, and, therefore, predate their monumental, finished counterparts? Or are such smaller versions aide-memoires, done, perhaps, to record beloved subjects once they departed the studio. Does the degree of finish enable us to make this determination for an artist who famously eluded normative notions of finish?" A compelling catalogue, beautifully illustrated.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is the first book in English on Henri Regnault (184371), a forgotten star of the European fin-de-siecle. A brilliant maverick who once seemed to hold the future of French painting in his hands, Regnault enjoyed a meteoric rise that was cut short when he died at the age of twenty-seven in the Franco-Prussian War. The story of his glamorous career and patriotic death colored French commemorative culture for nearly forty yearsuntil his memory was swept away by the vast losses of World War I. In The Deaths of Henri Regnault, Marc Gotlieb reintroduces this important artist while offering a new perspective on the ultimate decline of nineteenth-century salon painting. Gotlieb traces Regnaults trajectory after he won the prestigious Grand Prix de Rome, a fellowship that provided four years of study in Italy. Arriving in Rome, however, Regnault suffered a profound crisis of originality that led him to flee the city in favor of Spain and Morocco. But the crisis also proved productive: from Rome, Madrid, Tangier, and Paris, Regnault enthralled audiences with a bold suite of strange, seductive, and violent Orientalist paintings inspired by his exotic journeyimages that, Gotlieb argues, arose precisely from the crisis that had overtaken Regnault and that in key respects was shared by his more avant-garde counterparts. Both an in-depth look at Regnaults violent art and a vibrant essay on historical memory, The Deaths of Henri Regnault lays bare a creative legend who helped shape the collective experience of a generation.
