Average Customer Rating: 4.4 (5 reviews)

Summary: Flagrantly bad color rendition
Comment: This will be the first and last Abbeville Press book I buy. Most of the plates are so far off in saturation, hue, lightness values they are laughable. Where reproductions of the same Hassam paintings appear in other books , such as American Impressionists (0823002128) or California Impressionists (0915977257), they are inviting and credible; here they are repugnant. I don't think I have ever seen plates so far off norm. I see that I have the first printing too, so it cannot be due to long run deviations. The sound you just heard was this clunker hitting the trash can.

Summary: Impressive art, informative biography
Comment: Beautiful full-page color photos are liberal in this fine survey of Hassam's career as an important American Impressionist artist. Hassam explored Impressionist themes in a variety of mediums: many of his pictures have been hidden in private collections until now, others are on public display. Childe Hassam, Impressionist gathers many public and private holdings and adds a survey of the artist's life and times.
Rating: 5
Summary: A wonderful retrospective
Comment: This book is a beautiful example of Hassam's many diverse styles. The book contains wonderful essays and photos with a chronology of Hassam's life. A great book for anyone who likes art.
