Duval, Paul
Canadian Impressionism
166 pages. Bibliography. "This beautiful volume, full of light and colour that characterize most Impressionist art, is a thoroughly enjoyable guide to Canadian Impressionist painting from roughly 1885 to 1920. It brings together for the first time in book form, the Canadian representatives of the world's most popular and accessible school of painting, offering a totally fresh look at a now-vanished society, and presenting a strong contrast to the isolated, unpopulated vision of the country usually portrayed by the Group of Seven - although members of that group are represented in their earlier, more intimate styles." - from dust jacket. Gift greetings and Christmas sticker atop front free endpaper else unmarked. Light wear to price-clipped dust jacket. Minor lean to spine. A clean copy of this lovely and large work which measures 12"x12". Book

Into the American Woods : Negotiators on the Pennsylvania Frontier
463 pages including index. An award-winning historian's beautifully written reconstruction of how Europeans lived in peace and war with Indians on America's colonial frontier. Long erased from history - overlooked even in Benjamin West's famous painting of William Penn's legendary encounter with the Indians - the go-betweens of early America are recovered here in vivid detail. "... subtle, original, and engaging all at once... His creative and elegant narrative not only explores an intiguing subject; it opens up a whole new perspective on parts of eighteenth-century American life that we thought we already understood." - Peter H. Wood, Duke University. A new unread copy. Book

Peters, Helen Bergen
Painting During the Colonial Period in British Columbia 1845-1871: "... Water Between Walls of Shadowy granite, in a Gleaming Pass;"

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. Book
