American Impressionism by Amy Fine Collins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A "fine" collection of a score or more of American impressionists, arranged alphabetically after an introductory essay on painting genre. Nicely arranged with large images in the coffee table book, the descriptions tell us why this work is significant and aids understanding the elements of composition that make that one unique in the gallery of images. This is an educational, enlightening, engaging, and entertaining read to leaf through casually at any point. Cassat, Whistler, and Chase get specially detailed presentation.
