American Impressionist Masterpieces by Lisa N. Peters

In the last decades of the 19th century, the Impressionist style of painting sweeping France and other European countries had acquired a foothold in the United States. The American masters of Impressionism include some of the greatest names in the artistic world: Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent, Childe Hassam, William Merritt Chase, and William Glackens, as well as lesser-known figures like Theodore Wendel, Lilian Westcott Hale, and George Hitchcock. This book collects 48 full-color reproductions of American masterpieces, with accompanying texts that illuminate their place in the world of art and in the Impressionist movement. 9" x 12".
