Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

A later printing of the first UK edition, which was originally published by Macdonald & Co. in 1987. With 317 colour and monochrome plates by Edgar Degas. A large format portfolio. ***Near fine in illustrated glazed boards. No bumps or creases. Corners sharp. There is a light splash-stain to the bottom edge of the page block, but not affecting the interior of the book. Internally near fine, with no foxing and no inscriptions. ***In a near fine dustwrapper, which duplicates the illustration on the front board. The dustwrapper retains the original publisher's printed price of £50.00 net. The dustwrapper is just lightly creased at the edges, and has a few light scratches to the back panel. No tears or chips. No fading. ***316 x 250 mm.328 pages including a list and details of the 317 plates, and a guide to the principal personalities mentioned in the text at the back of the book. ***'This beautiful volume offers an astonishingly rich and detailed view of one of the greatest French artists of the 19th century. Edgar Degas (1834-1917) is primarily associated with the Impressionists, the group which did most to fashion a truly modern tradition in European painting. Yet his superb mastery of form and composition, even when apparently at his most spontaneous, marks out Degas as a profoundly original talent whose reputation continues to grow to this day. "Degas by Himself" is a unique approach to the work of this remarkable figure. In addition to over 250 colour illustrations, the book draws on a range of sources - the artist's own notebooks and letters, as well as anecdotes and memoirs from his circle of friends and acquaintances - to trace a vivid portrait of Degas at every stage of his long career. These sources reveal intimate aspects of Degas' life and personality. Long out of print, the documents bring us as close to the artist as the paintings and drawings he so often describes in his correspondence; the reminiscences and reported remarks conjuring up an unexpected picture of the artist as a man of wisdom and good humour whose wit and irony inspired many of his friends to write down his words for posterity. "Degas by Himself" is both a dazzling tribute to a giant talent and an unprecedented evocation of the artist and the man'. [Quote taken from the back of the dustwrapper] ***A later printing of the first UK edition - a celebration of the work of Edgar Degas. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only. ***As this is a large format portfolio book - please contact us for postal rates before purchasing if you live outside the UK!
