About This Item
New York: Fordham University Press, 1992. Hardcover. VG- (Few marks from previous gallery owner; page edges are tanning lightly; text and plates are good.). Blue cloth, green & color illus. dust jacket, 265 pp. 16 color, 149 bw plates. Continues from Jaffe's previous book, "The Italian Presence in American Art, 1760-1860." "While all art reflects the cultural context in which it is created, the nature of American art, predominantly Romantic-Realism, makes the link between idea and image particularly visible. What becomes evident is that 'the Italian presence' was almost never a simple matter of direct influence; rather it was an experience for American artists that afford them, above all, insight and inspiration. Italy was America's muse." (dj).
