THOMAS HART BENTON

31cm x 34cm x 4cm, pp 279, many reproductions of artist's work throughout, both in colour and in black and white.

"Thomas Hart Benton is surely the most American of artists."

This book, produced with the active co-operation of the artist, presents the entire exciting panorama of Benton's work, including many pictures never before published.

The author, Dr Matthew Baignell (at the time, a Professor at Rutgers University) traces the artist's work from his boyhood, through World War I, his break with Parisian modernism, and his return to the Midwest.

Large hardback clothbound book in very good condition. Slight bumping to head and tail of dustcover and slight rubbing to corners. Dustcover further protected by removable film-fronted cover.
