1984224 pages. 291 x 245 mm. "James Wilson Morrice is one of the twentieth century's most talented and lyrical painters. Whether depicting a Quebec village in winter, a Paris cafe, or a North African market place, Morrice's vibrant colours and perfectly balanced compositions capture his subjects in a suspended timelessness. The 90 superb colour plates in this volume, most of which have never before been reproduced, provide a spectacular visual experience, and reveal the unique style and progress of Morrice's painting years. A magnificent tribute to one of Canada's greatest painters, and a landmark event in the history of canadian art." - dust jacket. Includes index. Unmarked with average wear. Binding intact. Dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A sound copy. Spadoni & Donnelly 3548. Book
1979117 unnumbered pages. Fifty-two glossy full-page colour reproductions of paintings by William Tull. Each painting accompanied by a brief description. "There are those who would vainly try to categorize William Tull as a Southwestern painter - or even as a contemporary classical impressionist. It is true that many of his paintings use the southwest as subject and background; and many do evoke the architecture and spirit of the Pueblo Indian as man in harmony with the earth. On very broad terms he belongs to the school of American Impressionists. But still, you can't categorize Tull, nor his paintings. So critics and laymen alike are left, quite simply, with this: the sheer, unadulterated joy of experiencing the vitality and robustness of life in a Tull painting." - Bill Byron. Light wear to clean and unmarked book which is bound in attractive cream-colored cloth. Slight bow to front board. Binding tight. Average wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. Laid-in is a photo-illustrated 1991 magazine article about Tull's village of desert homes, Adobes de la Tierra, at The Boulders in Carefree, Arizona. Book

198250 pages. Generously illustrated in colour and black and white. Catalogue for an exhibition held September 9 - October 17, 1982 in Victoria. "Maxwell Bates is a major figure in Canadian art. As an expressive figurative painter he stands alone. In his work he portrayed the foibles of society around him; the individuals, events and landscapes, all with great clarity. The exhibition included both well known and lesser known works, and this publication gives an in-depth look at the artist and his work and includes much new information." - Foreword. Errata slip laid in. Clean and unmarked with light wear. A quality copy. Book
1954pp. 80. "Although paintings by members of the Group of Seven have been included in all major exhibitions of Canadian painting, there has been only one important exhibition devoted exclusively to their work since 1933, when the Group of Seven was merged into the larger Canadian Group of Painters: this was held at the National Gallery of Canada in 1936. The present exhibition, then, may be regarded as the second such survey. It differs from the first by the addition of works by Franz Johnston, who was a member of the Group for a short time, and Tom Thomson, who was never a member, but who has been included in this exhibition on grounds of style and association. This is certainly the first time that any major collection of the work of the Group of Seven has been seen in Vancouver." - Introduction. Includes article by Lawren Harris entitled "The Story of the Group of Seven" and an article by R.H. Hubbard entitled "The National Movement in Canadian Painting". Catalogue proper begins on page 19 and includes colour and black and white reproductions of thirty-one works. Unmarked with moderate wear. 23 x 15cm. Lerner & Williamson 1747 Book
