Baigell, Naomi

The Hoosier Group Five American Painters 1880-1920

No edition stated; No printing stated. Softcover.

The works were painted in and/or depict landscapes, portraits, and still life in Brown County Indiana USA where the artists lived and Munich Germany where they studied and worked together in the 1880s. Small, but excellent reproductions of their superior work. Each painting accompanied by title, media, and size. As a group they had a naturalistic style that set them apart from the artistic herd of the day and commands stunning auction hammer prices today. A clean, good looking example that's better than VG implies.; Color Photographs; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 19 pages .
