MAXFIELD PARRISH: THE LANDSCAPES
Written by Alma Gilbert. Illustrated by Maxfield Parrish.
Stock no. 1828169
Published by Ten Speed Press. 1st 1998. Nearly fine condition in a very good dustwrapper.

A witty and illuminating book in whcih the author and Parrish expert argues persuasively that Parrish's better-known illustration career was a thirty-five-year detour on his path to achieving his true goal, a dedication to reproducing nature in all its splendor. 50-plus colour plates show how he masterfully achieved that goal, while the text provides a fascinating insight into the stories behind these glorious images. Also featured are lovely photos of Parrish's estate. Blue cloth boards, gilt title to spine. ISBN: 0898155878. A lovely copy. Blue pictorial dustwrapper is lightly edge-creased and is a little scuffed to rear panel.
