Edition DescriptionReprint
SynopsisPomegranate is pleased to release this collection of reproductions of paintings by French artist Adolphe-William Bouguereau (1825-1905), whose evocative visions of a better, purer time and place earned him a passionate following not only during his lifetime but through to the present. Author Fronia E. Wissman offers insights into the artist's work, career, and family life. And sixty exquisite full-color reproductions exemplify Bouguereau's prodigious talent in creating works of sensual, emotional, and intellectual appeal.
Bouguereau was not admired by his Impressionist peers. His paintings, however, are beautiful. He has the same eye for detail as the Wyeths....father son and grandson. This book captures the wonder of his work.
