About this Item

Famous American Women Painters , a monograph by Arthur Hoeber, was published in 1914 by The Mentor Department of Fine Arts as Serial No. 55. This essay was then bound in a large collection of disparate articles similar to a Sammelband. The essay, a disbound, stand-alone monograph, illustrated with 12 black-and-white illustrations, as well as 6 sepia gravures, is not a definitive article, because of its brevity, but it touches on six important women artists that had been working in the nineteenth century and beginning of the twentieth century. The tone is genial and the essay is informative. ************************************************** There are twelve monochrome pictures through the text and six full page sepia gravures. The pictures through the text are discussed, and each plate illustration is given a full page explanation. The six full sized sepia gravures are as follows : Mother and Child by Mary Cassatt / Lady With Dog by Cecilia Beaux / Fairy Tales by Lydia Field Emmett / Idleness by Mary Greene Blumenschein / Portrait of a Young Girl by Louise Cox / Brother and Sister by Jean McLane Johansen *********************************** SERIAL : Mentor Department of Fine Arts Serials (Mentor Vol. 2, No. 3, Serial # 55) / TITLE : Famous American Women Painters / AUTHOR : Arthur Hoeber (1854 - 1915) / IMPRINT : The Mentor Association / PLACE : No Place given - [but New York] / DATE : (1914) / EDITION : Reprint / STATUS : OP Out of Print DETAILS : Disbound article.
