History of art / art & design styles

Paperback. Today we view Cezanne as a monumental figure, but during his lifetime (1839-1906), many did not understand him or his work. This book tells the story of an artist who was never accepted into the official Salon: he was considered a revolutionary at best and a barbarian at worst, whose paintings were unfinished, distorted and strange. Num Pages: 608 pages, 40 pp colour plates. BIC Classification: ACVT; BGF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 152 x 232 x 40. Weight in Grams: 756.

Hardback. In the voluminous scholarship that's been written on Paul Cezanne, little has been said about the 24 portraits in oil that Cezanne made of his wife, Hortense Fiquet Cezanne, over an extended twenty-year period. This title focuses on these paintings as a group and looks at the differences that render many of them unrecognizable as the same person. Num Pages: 320 pages, 18 color illustrations and 65 black-and-white photographs. BIC Classification: 1DDF; 3JH; ACV; AGB; AGHF. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly.
