Good quality reproductions on heavy stock.Not the paintings I'd have chosen but that is a matter of taste.shipped within published time parameter.

5-0 out of 5 stars You should collect them all.
One of a series from Dover that includes Cassatt, Dali, Degas, Gauguin, Homer, Kahlo...you get the idea. Ridiculously inexpensive, you should collect them all. Once you have them, you'll resist ripping them out of thecute little booklet & mailing them. Maybe, like me, you'll keep them ina drawer by your computer as handy fine art stress relievers.

Product Description
This large, lavish journey through the art of the 19th-century French landscape offers a host of masterful works, among them Corot's Forest of Fontainbleau, Millet's End of the Hamlet of Gruchy, Renoir's Rocky Crags at L'Estaque, and Monet's Rue de la Bavolle, Honfleur. As is often the case, however, some of the most wonderful things to see are also the least expected: rare and unusual monotypes by Degas, three states of a softground etching by Pissarro, and numerous works by some of their lesser-known but equally important contemporaries. Unlike previous books on the topic, Impressions of Light presents a unique and stunningly complete group of work that introduces a new level of complexity into the discussion of French landscapes. Rather than considering the landscape as a steady, linear development and the product of a single medium, it takes into account the many crosscurrents and intersecting developments in French art, from the Barbizon school through the post-Impressionist period. In addition, it studies the landscape in a variety of media--painting, prints, and photography--exploring both the individual artists' perceptions and the ways in which they influenced each other. With over 80 paintings and 70 works on paper from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston's collections, and published to accompany a major exhibition, Impressions of Light encompasses more than 100 years and 56 artists working in a dozen different media. It holds the broadest possible view, yet never loses sight of the extraordinary intricacy that makes the landscape so enduringly appealing. Artists Include:Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Huet, Odilon Redon, Jean-Francois Millet, Charles-Francois Daubigny, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Cezanne, and Paul Gaugin among others.

Essays by Fronia E. Wissman, Karen E. Haas, Anne Havinga, Sue Welsh Reed and Barbara Stern Shapiro.

4-0 out of 5 stars Come Visit Beautiful French Landscapes
The book Impressions of Light by George Shackleford et al is a companion book to an art exhibit of works from Boston's Museum of Fine Art. The paintings are landscapes created by France's greatest nineteenth century painters and photographers. Most of the painters are Impressionists but others schools are represented as well. The book also contains sketches which were part of the exhibit. The sketches, as well as the written commentary which accompanies many of them, allows the reader to better understand the creative process of the painters. The factual information in the book is very extensive and helps the readers see more in the works than normally meets the eye. Perhaps what is most interesting about this book and the collection of paintings and photographs included it is the plethora of lesser known works by these great artists. Readers, especially those who have been fortunate to view the exhibit, will be transported to the settings of these great works and gain a deeper appreciation of these great artists and photographers.

5-0 out of 5 stars A spectaculrly beautifully, illustrated art history
Impressions Of Light: The French Landscape From Corot To Monet is a lavishly, richly, spectaculrly beautifully, illustrated art history showcasing one hundred years of French art and 56 French artists. Included area wealth of rare and unusual monotypes by Degas, three states of a softground etching by Pissarro, and numerous illustrative works by lesser-known by equally significant contemporaries. Of particular interest is the attention paid to intersecting developments in French art from the Barbizon school through post-Impressionism. Enhanced with more than 80 paintings and 70 works on paper drawn from the MFA collections, showcasing the French landscape through painting, prints, and photography, Impressions Of Light deftly explores individual artists' perceptions as well as the manifold ways that influenced each other. Impressions Of Light will prove to be a welcome and much appreciated contribution to Art History collections in general, and 19th Century French landscape art and photography in particular. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars The Best One-Volume Monograph Today
This is a large and magnificent book. It contains a scholary text and an abundance of large beautiful color plates. The book is a truly a pleasure to browse, but also serves as the best serious one-volume monograph on Renoir found on the market today. It is a certainly a lifetime keeper and is protected by a sturdy, illustrated slipcase.Typical of the kind of books published by Abbeville Press, it is worth its full price, let alone the "steal price" on Amazon.

5-0 out of 5 stars An Artist in the Fullest Sense of the Word
Pierre-Auguste Renoir was an artist in the fullest sense of the word.Thepaintings he left us show us the simplicity and sensuality of his times andtheir brilliant colors and joyous images express the passion of Renoir'sown soul.

The paradise of color and the changing effects of light wereRenoir's greatest gift to the world.This book, Renoir:The Crown ArtLibrary, showcases some of the artist's most beloved works and gives abrief overview of his life.

A quick glance at this book tells you thatRenoir's favorite subject was always people.In fact, it is possible toselect an entire series of masterpieces from Renoir's works withoutincluding even one landscape--something that would be impossible with anyof the other Impressionists.

The people created by Renoir are alwaysfilled with the warm joy of simply being alive.Of the many illustrationsin this book, most are in color, allowing us to both study and participatein the "joie de vivre" that Renoir, more than any other artist,communicated to the world.

There is a short analysis of the evolution ofRenoir's technique and we learn why he abandoned the dark, sombre colors ofthe Old Masters and turned to the brilliant reds, blues, yellows and greensof which he was so fond.

We learn how and why the feminine form becamea stronger and stronger element in his paintings, especially those of hislater years, and we see how, in the last ten years of his life, he limitedhis palette to only a few colors--cinnabar, ochre, Naples yellow, black andsome white, yet managed to create playful visions of a sun-bright world,seemingly devoid of weight; paintings in which contours of people andsurroundings are blurred and all is joined in a concord of color andnaturalness.

Renoir:The Crown Art Library is a wonderful introductionto the life and style of this master Impressionist, the world's most joyouspainter.Those looking for a biography of Renoir would be better offchoosing Renoir, My Father, by Jean Renoir, the artist's middle son. In-depth analyses of Impressionism and Renoir's own technique inparticular, are also better covered in other books such as Rewald's Historyof Impressionism.

But for the vast majority of people, laymen who onlywant to increase their knowledge and appreciation of the world's greatestartists, Renoir:The Crown Art Library offers a wonderful starting point. With is lavish illustrations and lively text, it will broaden the scope ofanyone's understanding.The book is a joy to browse and once insight isgained into the how and why of each painting, that joy is onlyincreased.

While certainly far from exhaustive, Renoir:The Crown ArtLibrary, is a lovely book and anyone with even a passing interest in Renoirand Impressionism will find it well worth their while.

5-0 out of 5 stars Marvelously interesting coloring book
I am an adult colorer and have done dozens of coloring books, most of them published by Dover.

I am currently coloring this one, and absolutely loving it.

The pictures are quite well rendered by Marty Noble, an illustration of a Renoir painting fills each page.I am finding them easy to do with markers or chalk.I think an older child could also do these pictures, age 10 & up.

The subjects are interesting, showing men, women and children in various everyday situations and activities from the time period in which these paintings were done--a mother & her children in their parlor, a man & woman dancing in a cafe, young girls in their pretty dresses, a husband & wife in the garden of their home, and others.

Furthermore, a small image of each painting is shown on the inside front & inside back covers of the coloring book for those who wish to make it like the original.

The title of each painting is given underneath the drawing inside the coloring book, together with information on the size of Renoir's painting and the year in which the painting was done, and a brief history of Renoir is also given just inside the front of the book.

Highly recommended.

5-0 out of 5 stars a fine account of Renois's life
It was sort of a monograph about Renoir's life and was beneficial to my work

5-0 out of 5 stars Great teaching tool!
This is a great book for teachers introducing artists to their students and anyone trying to understand impressionism.

The text (Renoir's life, his friends - like Monet and Sisley, & the Impressionist movement) is well done, and paired with pictures of Renoir's work.

Cartoons and word bubbles are thrown in for good measure, and the whole piece works well together to educate art neophytes like myself and the elementary-aged students with whom I work.

This is a well-done book for the sake of education and keeping art alive.Mike Venezia's work is thorough and well done.

Product Description
Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) is now universally acclaimed: museums pride themselves on his paintings, crowds flock to his retrospectives. His work shows art at its most light-hearted, sensual and luminous. Renoir never wanted anything ugly in his paintings, nor any dramatic action. "I like pictures which make me want to wander through them when it's a landscape," he said, "or pass my hand over breast or back if it's a woman." Renoir's entire oeuvre is dominated by the depiction of women. Again and again he painted "these faunesses with their pouting lips" (Mallarme) and invented a new image of feminity. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Marvilleux Renoir!
Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) represented by far, one the lofty painters of the second half of the XIX Century. His enslaving talent allowed to make a true sweep through the most diverse tendencies. His visible influences received from Courbet, Van Gogh and Delacroix, did not leave on him, a perennial trace. The presence of Cézanne and Monet irrupted strongly in the necessity of rejecting the conservative patterns and raid in new stylistic proposals. He was not only a notable Realist artist but also crossed the Impressionist threshold, in an untiring process of self renovation and ferventconveyance.

"Nowadays there is a tendency to explain everything. But if I could explainpainting, it would not an artwork. Must I tell you what qualities constitute to my judge, the true art? It must be indescribable and inimitable...The artwork must captive the watcher, bundle him, drag him. Through it, the artist communicates his passion; it is the current that emits and through includes the watcher in itself:"Renoir.

Admirable and compelling biography that it will catch you from the first page.

5-0 out of 5 stars Geniuses' full color reproductions.
I'm in love with The Impressionists in general and with Auguste Renoir in particular.
His palette is full of light; soft pink, greens and blues are a joy to watch time and again. As most Impressionists Renoir paint wonderful every day scenes, mainly outside as his magnificent: "The Luncheon of the Boating Party" (1881), "The Swing" (1876) and "Le Moulin de la Galette" (1876), whose careful reproductions are shown here.
He was an artist that loved life and wanted to reflect it as he perceived: full of little moments of simple joy and relax.
He was also a masterful portrayer as you may see from his "On the Terrace" (1881) in the cover of this book or "Two Girls in Black" (1881).
Another subject that attracted his fancy was the dancing couple, which he depicts with tenderness and accuracy. It doesn't matter if the dancers are from the high class as in "City Dance" or commoners as in "Dance at Bougival" both from 1883.
At the end of his life his paintings evolve and produce for our delight: "Seated Bather" (1914) and "The Nymphs" (1918).
His life and works are described and commented by the author with keen penetration and endearment.
Reproductions are awesome and do justice to the Artist.
Do not miss this book!
