About This Item
It is a serious work of art history, and includes survey notices, exhibition texts and comments to and from collectors.
9" x 11", 4 lbs.
291 pages.
That includes 86 pages about Edgar Degas--his life and work, including illustrations and sketches.
Then there are 152 pages of plates. Most are black and white, and there are many black and white sketches and drawings.
There are 35 heliogravure (photogravure) color plates. These are tipped in, or hand-mounted, meaning that they are easily removed for framing.
But they are on different paper--a beige linen paper. You can remove the whole page and use the linen in the frame, or you could put your own backing on.
The spine of this book is badly discolored, although the covers are still a nice green.
