Synopsis:

E. Ambrose Webster (1869-1935) was among the earliest and most accomplished American modernists. His rhapsodic landscapes of blazing sunlight and explosive color are startling even today for their innovation. He was an artist in whom Edward Hopper could find no flaw, while Richard Diebenkorn thought Webster painted some of the most vigorous and notable color essays in the history of American art. E. Ambrose Webster: Chasing the Sun is the first in-depth study of Webster's career. Author Gail R. Scott reveals the breadth of Webster's achievement in a richly illustrated book featuring more than 150 color plates, as well as photographs of Webster, his family, colleagues, and travels.
