Softbound. Color pictorial wraps with french flaps, [ix]74 pp, 59 illustrations, mostly color. From the publisher: In Taxing Visions, Leo Mazow and Kevin Murphy explore taxes, rents, economic depression, and financial inequity as subject matter in several visually provocative paintings and works on paper. Although this period is often identified artistically with leisure-laden impressionist landscapes, flowing-with-abundance still life paintings, and class-conscious official portraits, practitioners working in a variety of stylistic idioms reckoned with financial panics and occupational turmoil that marked the Reconstruction, Gilded Age, and early Progressive eras. These paintings, drawings, and prints demonstrate with sometimes startling clarity the experience of economic downturn, ultimately picking up where facts, figures, and the printed word leave off. Featured artists include William Michael Harnett, George Inness, Eastman Johnson, and James McNeill Whistler, as well as several lesser-known individuals. Taxing Visions shows satire and protest playing out through a sizable body of work, with artists confronting recession and depression with equal parts reportage, invective, humor, and hope. This catalogue accompanies an exhibition held in two locations September 2010 - May 2011. VG (May have few marks from previous gallery owner.).

8 x 11.875 inches. Hardcover, three-piece case binding with debossed and tipped-on title. 176 pages. A catalogue issued in conjunction with "Gardens, Art, and Commerce in Chinese Woodblock Prints" at the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens, September 17, 2016-January 9, 2017. The exhibition and catalogue explore the art, craft, and cultural significance of Chinese woodblock prints made during their golden age, from the late 16th century through the 19th century. The fully illustrated catalogue features contributions by co-curators T. June Li and Suzanne E. Wright. Li details the origins and provenance of the Huntington's Ten Bamboo Studio Manual of Calligraphy and Painting, a landmark of multi-block color printing, with particular emphasis on its appeal to 18th- and 19th-century Japanese collectors. Wright traces the development of three distinct regional styles of woodblock-printed illustrations during the late Ming dynasty, with striking examples of each style drawn from the exhibition. Included are 154 color illustrations and two maps. T. June Li is curator emerita and founding curator of the Chinese garden at the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens. Suzanne E. Wright is an associate professor of art history at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Hardcover, three-piece case binding with debossed and tipped-on title.
