Hardcover. Dusty rose cloth, wine-colored & color illus. dust jacket, 272 pp., 149 BW illus., 144 color plates. Catalog of an exhibition held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., Apr. 12-July 12, 1998. Of all the impressionist painters who sought ways to represent and express the modern world, only Degas was consistently attracted to the world of horses and jockeys. He was captivated by the beauty, power, and grace of the horse in much the same way that he was fascinated by the agility of ballet dancers. This beautiful book, the catalogue of an exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, discusses in detail the importance of the horse in Degas' work and includes reproductions of more than 120 of Degas' paintings, drawings, pastels, prints, and sculpture relating to the horse and racing. VG (Few marks from previous gallery owner; page margins are beginning to tan lightly; text and plates are good.). Seller Inventory # 138239
