Hardback. Condition: Good. Explore the treasures of The Frick Collection through the eyes of a diverse group of contemporary writers, artists and other cultural figures, from George Condo, Lydia Davis and Julie Mehretu to Abbi Jacobson and Edmund White Published with The Frick Collection. A cultural haven for museumgoers in New York and beyond, The Frick Collection holds masterpieces by some of the most celebrated artists in the Western tradition?among them Bellini, Gainsborough, Goya, Rembrandt, Vermeer and Whistler?installed in a Gilded Age mansion on Fifth Avenue. This book includes 61 reflections on the Frick?s preeminent collection, with the contributors writing about an artwork that has personal significance, sharing how it has moved, challenged, puzzled or inspired them. Each text is accompanied by an illustration of the artwork. For example, writer Jonathan Lethem tells how he started going to the Frick as a teenager, to gaze at Hans Holbein?s portraits of Thomas Cromwell and Sir Thomas More. Historian Simon Schama revels in Turner?s Mortlake Terrace: Early Summer Morning, which reminds him of his own childhood growing up next to the River Thames.

Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Pastel yellow and color pictorial wraps, French flaps, 163 pp., color illus. "Widely considered Britain's greatest painter, Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) is best known for his light-filled landscapes and seascapes. A relentless traveler, Turner often turned his artistic attention to the theme of modern and ancient ports. In the mid-1820s, Turner exhibited two monumental, and controversial, paintings of ports: Cologne and Dieppe. Shocking for their intense luminosity and yellow tonality, as well as for Turner's unorthodox handling of paint, these works marked a transition in the artist's career as he moved away from naturalism and toward a new, poetic topography. This in-depth study of these two seminal paintings also addresses a wide selection of Turner's works in both oil and watercolor from the 1820s, placing them in the context of radical changes in British social and economic structures taking place at the time."
