Nicolai Fechin
Book is in excellent condition. Binding is solid and square, covers have sharp corners, exterior shows no blemishes, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Exhibition catalog of the show of the same name at the publisher's gallery, Feb. 2013. 79 pages in oblong format with full color, many full page prints throughout. "In 1911, place of honor in the Annual Winter Exhibition of the National Academy of Design in New York was assigned to a painting by thirty-year old Russian artist Nicolai Fechin (1881-1955). His 'savage, splendid, and heterogeneous' canvas displayed a 'barbaric mastery of form and color.' Fechin?s early preference for thick layers of color and pigment with very little oil, and a penchant for conflating the real and the abstract, would bring him international acclaim in the first decades of the 20th century."
