Winslow Homer : an American vision  Cover Image Book Book

Winslow Homer : an American vision / Randall C. Griffin.

Summary:

"This book is the first comprehensive critical survey of the artist written in the last decade and includes every one of his major paintings alongside a selection of his lesser known etchings and woodcuts. Griffin's thoroughly research yet readable study not only presents a full account of Homer's life and work, but also a fresh and provocative reassessment of his place in the history of American art."--Jacket.
