Perhaps this is because his very individual vision tells us something of the pathos of human beings in a world growing progressively more complex and bewildering, and the wistful imaginings of an artist equally lost. Although influenced by Neo~Impressionism, Cubism, the primitive arts, and Brancusi, his work at the same time shows how much the fifteenth~century art of his own native Italy remained with him. His voluptuous nudes, so vibrant yet so delicate; his innocent, wide~eyed, trusting children; his portraits which, despite the mannerisms of his art, project an astonishing impact of personality (to judge by the photographs, the sitters could be easily identified)~all these show a refinement of line and an elegance of color and touch which do much to explain his solid place in modern art. Modigliani was a very romantic figure, tremendously popular with women. His great love, Jeanne Hebuterne, committed suicide on the morning after his death. Yet the legend of his dissipation and irregular life must have been exaggerated, as Dr. Alfred Werner, the author, points out, for the productivity of his pitifully short life makes it much more likely that it was illness that drove him to work and live at a frenzied pace~a man working against time and creating a body of immortal work. Dr. Werner is a prolific writer on modern art who has made a special study of the so~called School of Paris painters. He has consulted with family and friends of the artist and has examined a great deal of documentary material, some of which is reproduced here to make a kind of family album. Sculpture (perhaps Modigliani's greatest love in art), paintings, and drawings are included to round out a striking lifework. 122 illustrations, including 48 tipped~on colorplates.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Raoul Dufy: text by Alfred Werner; Harry N. Abrams, Inc., publishers, New York, 1987. Raoul Dufy (1877-1953) once said every night I go to bed happy and exhausted, telling myself that I have worked to the limit of my resources and can die peacefully. Gertude Stein captured the essence of his art when she proclaimed Dufy is pleasure! Pleasure, happiness, joy, beauty these are the words that come naturally to people when the subject is Dufy. Long the odd man out in modern French painting, precisely because of his optimistic and uncritical view of life, Dufy is an artist whose star is on the rise again. For, as this book makes clear, he was a great painter whose sensuous delight in life is rooted in a tradition that goes back to Watteau and Fragonard. Like many French painters of his day, Dufy in his early career orbited the great luminaries: Degas, Monet, Matisse, Cézanne. By the time he reached forty, he had evolved a style that was unmistakably his own, as he recorded the fashionable world around him of horse races and yachting scenes, sparkling views of the Riveria, chic parties and musical events. Alfred Werner describes the elements of Dufy s style: the seductiveness of the light, swift brushstrokes, the atmosphere of perfect calm arising from the complete harmony of the predominant colors; the decorative beauty of the dream-like patterns, often reminiscent of the Orient. So distinct was Dufy s mark on the visual arts that the word Dufyesque is often used to describe the style of work that is gay, light-hearted, and decorative. Alfred Werner brings Dufy to life, sketching his youth and apprenticeship in the arts; his years as a textile designer and art director, first for the French couturier Paul Poiret, and then for a silk firm in Lyons; and his years of triumph as an artist second only to Matisse in his power to evoke a perfect world of balance, purity, and serenity. Forty colorplates, with commentaries by Dr. Werner, reveal that the values embodied in Dufy s delightful paintings of the passing scene are deep and enduring. This large book is in fine condition in a fine dust jacket that is now in a protective mylar wrap. This large volume may require additional postage. There are 98 illustrations, including 40 plates in full color.
