About This Item
British Columbia: Sono Nis Press, 1979. Book. Fair. Paperback. First Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 78 pages. Features the works of Edward Parker Bedwell, Henry James Warre, John Clayton White and Frederick Whymper. Monograph from an Exhibition at the Maltwood Art Museum and Gallery, University of Victoria June-July 1979. Four British artists who recorded the British Columbia landscape in the third quarter of the nineteenth century constitute the material of this study. Eschewing dependence on formal art criticism she chooses rather to focus on the historical function of the works as documentary records. The biographies and catalogue raisonnes which conclude the study are major contributions to the history of Canadian art. - Excerpts from Preface by Martin Seeger, Director, Maltwood Art Museum. Usual library markings. Somewhat above-average external wear. A sound reference copy..
