    Hardcover. Condition: VG+/VG+. White paper boards, gray and illus. dust jacket, 312 pp., color and BW illus. Contents as follows: Introduction -- The two versions of Degas' Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen: a detailed analysis -- The Little Dancer plaster: recording an iconic moment in a contrapposto age : the iconic versus the contrapposto -- Paris in the 1880s: a sudden flourish of four-sided poses -- Degas and modern art -- Visual timeline: the four castings of the Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen -- Chronologies I and II: creation, re-workings, and castings of the Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen and the Nude Little Dancer.; Appendix A: all reviews from 1881 that refer to Degas' Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen -- Appendix B: Degas' preliminary drawings for the Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen -- Appendix C: Measurement and visual comparison -- Appendix D: documentation -- Appendix E: questions and answers. : "Beginning with the hitherto unknown plaster version of Edgar Degas' Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen, Dr Gregory Hedberg undertakes a comprehensive re-evaluation of the significance and influence of this work of modern art. A recently discovered plaster of 'Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen' is upending our understanding of Edgar Degas' most famous work. Documentary and technical evidence confirm that the plaster was cast from Degas' 'Little Dancer' before the wax sculpture was extensively reworked after 1903. The plaster thus records Degas' wax as it appeared when it shocked the Parisian art world at the sixth Impressionist exhibition of 1881. It reveals a far more revolutionary work than the reworked Little Dancer wax and the posthumous Hébrard bronzes we know today. The plaster shows why Joris-Karl Huysmans, in 1881, raved that Degas' 'Little Dancer' was 'the only "truly modern" attempt I know of in sculpture' and why the work left Whistler in a state of near delirium. The plaster reveals Degas at his most innovative by introducing a radical idea of posing a lowly 'opera rat' as a revered figure by giving her an iconic pose, then locking her into a square vitrine, thus emphasizing her symmetrical, four-side stance. It is now clear that in his 'Little Dancer' Degas anticipated radical ideas that came to define key aspects of modern art, dramatically impacting Degas' most noted peers, including Whistler, Manet, Seurat and Sargent. Even twentieth-century masterpieces by Duchamp, Giacometti, Oldenburg, Warhol and Hirst reflect, albeit indirectly, Degas' masterful innovations".

    Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Stapled binding. Bound with pictorial paper covers. A beautifully illustrated catalogue of new watercolors by famed British watercolorist Alexander Creswell. Breaking the boundaries of traditional watercolor painting by creating the largest size watercolors on a single sheet ever, Creswell continues to elevate the medium of watercolor to new heights. An interesting conversation with the artist, led by Dr. Gregory Hedberg, provides a fascinating understanding of the manner in which the works are created and where the artist's inspirations come from. Creswell's largest collector is HM Queen Elizabeth II, and he has spent time traveling with other members of the British royal family. He was recently given the honor of painting HM The Queen Mother Lying in State, the first time ever this prestigious honor was bestowed upon a watercolorist. 16pp.CONDITION: Covers have light rubbing and edge wear. Pages are crisp and clean. Binding and text block are sound. Full refund if not satisfied.

    Hardcover. Condition: In shrinkwrap. Greyish DJ with photo illustration and red and grey lettering; white boards; 391 pp.; richly illustrated, chiefly in color. In 1955 seventy-four original plasters recording sculptures by Edgar Degas (1834-1917) were moved to the old Valsuani foundry in Paris only to reappear in France in 2004. These plasters are now being published for the first time, presenting new documentary and physical evidence regarding their dating following an in-depth analysis into the condition of Degas's waxes at the time of his death. Technical and documentary evidence now proves that as many as half of the serialised "Hébrard" Degas bronzes now held in museum and private collections around the world were in fact cast at the Valsuani foundry in the 1950s and 1960s - long after the Hébrard foundry closed in 1935/36. All of the now cleaned 74 Degas plasters are recorded in full colour illustrations. The detailed appendix, which can be accessed via a QR code, provides additional information on the objects and is designed as a scholarly catalogue raisonné. Contents as follows: Introduction -- Chapter I. A new look at Degas Sculpture -- Chapter II. Dividing the 74 Degas plasters into five dating groups -- Chapter III. An in-depth study of the Tub plaster : a record of an earlier state of one of Degas' most important sculptures -- Chapter IV. The truth about the Hébrard Degas bronzes -- Plates. All the Degas plasters.

The plaster thus records Degas' wax as it appeared when it shocked the Parisian art world at the sixth Impressionist exhibition of 1881. It reveals a far more revolutionary work than the reworked Little Dancer wax and the posthumous Hébrard bronzes we know today. The plaster shows why Joris-Karl Huysmans, in 1881, raved that Degas' 'Little Dancer' was 'the only "truly modern" attempt I know of in sculpture' and why the work left Whistler in a state of near delirium. The plaster reveals Degas at his most innovative by introducing a radical idea of posing a lowly 'opera rat' as a revered figure by giving her an iconic pose, then locking her into a square vitrine, thus emphasizing her symmetrical, four-side stance. It is now clear that in his 'Little Dancer' Degas anticipated radical ideas that came to define key aspects of modern art, dramatically impacting Degas' most noted peers, including Whistler, Manet, Seurat and Sargent. Even twentieth-century masterpieces by Duchamp, Giacometti, Oldenburg, Warhol and Hirst reflect, albeit indirectly, Degas' masterful innovations.".
