From the dj of another edition: the text, chronology and beautiful, large, illustrations trace the artist's career from her academic art studies in Philadelphia, through her discovery of the works of Manet, Degas, and other impressionists, to her highly successful one-woman shows at Gallerie Durand-Ruel, the impressionist's loyal art dealer. Text and captions accompany each plate. Excerpts from correspondence with her closest friend help illuminate the artist's personality. (Inventory #: 129109.1)
