The Art of Emily Carr Doris Shadbolt Signed HC Modern Canadian Pacific Northwest

Description: The Art of Emily Carr by Doris Shadbolt, jointly published by Clark, Irwin & Company Ltd. of Toronto and Douglas & McIntyre Ltd. of Vancouver in 1979. This Book is a Hardcover with Dust Jacket measuring 10.75" x 12.625" with 224 pages. DescriptionFlawless prose, splendid reproduction, handsome design–an apt showcase for the artist who painted some of Canada’s most magnificent paintings.This book represents the culmination of Doris Shadbolt's long fascination with the work of Carr, a painter she views as one of the strongest and most individual of Canadian artists. It reflects more than a decade of meticulous research, and excerpts form Carr’s own prolific writings have been skillfully woven into the narrative, combining with exquisite reproductions of over 200 paintings, charcoals and drawings, two thirds of them in colour, almost all of them specially photographed for this book.Never swallowed by the mainstream in art. Emily Carr remained extraordinarily loyal to her inner vision. The world she created lingers persuasively in the Canadian psyche.ConditionSigned and Dated (but Not Inscribed or Personalized) by the Author, Doris Shadbolt, on the Title Page.This Book is in Acceptable Condition.
