Book Description
The first comprehensive, scholarly sourcebook/research guide/bibliography on the major French Symbolist painters, this work includes nearly 3,000 entries covering a variety of materials. Each artist receives a primary and secondary bibliography with many annotated entries. Art works, personal names, and subject indexes facilitate easy access. The volume is designed for art historians, art students, museum and gallery curators, and others interested in this major art style of the last half of the 19th century and the first quarter of the 20th century. Art museums and art libraries, in both the United States and abroad were gleaned for sources. This is a unique and substantial research tool.
Publisher comments
Clement...offers another admirable sourcebook...Readers interested in only one of the artists should examine the entire book, since the materials and topics overlap. For serious art collections, and for dyed-in-the-wool devotees of late-19th- and early-20th-century art history.
