Description
Frederic Remington (1861-1909), known the world over, painted these magnificent night paintings during the last eight years of his life. These dramatic images are filled with color and light... moonlight, firelight and candlelight. As the book says, it includes three essays discussing Remington's nocturnes within the literary, historic, aesthetic, and technological context of his time. The nocturnes do much more than document a night that was rapidly disappearing under bright, newly installed electric lights. They also reveal how his son of a Civil War hero moved from burnishing Theodore Roosevelt's rough riding heroics in Cuba to exploring his own soul-searing war experience and probing America's own heart of darkness. Great pictures!! mint condition The buyer will also receive the most recent copy of Art of the West magazine as a free gift from the seller!!!/FONT> By Nancy Anderson. Hardcover 9 5/8" x 11 1/4" 224 pages, 115 color plates, 24 half tones
