Audubon, Homer, Whistler & 19h century America by Wilmerding, John - 1970

[McCall Collection of Modern Art] McCall Publishing, NY, 1970. Hardcover. Near Fine. "The nineteenth century is in many respects the most interesting in the history of the shaping and development of art in the United States. It was during this century that many of the themes associated with the American character first appeared. Like their European counterparts, American artists responded to the qualities and meaning of light. Landscape was especially suited to the interests of both European and American painters, who increasingly left the studio to paint outdoors."
