Summary: A VOLUME TO BE TREASURED
Comment: Second only to visiting Washington's famed Corcoran Gallery to view the magnificent exhibit of the same title is this lush volume published in association with Corcoran's show. With some 150 full color illustrations readers see Venice through Whistler's eyes.
It was Degas who supposedly said to the artist, "Whistler, if you were not a genius you would be the most ridiculous man in Paris." Genius he was - not only witnessed in his paintings but also in his influence on fellow artists: Rossetti, Sargent, and the photographers Edward Steichen and Alfred Steiglitz.
During his tenure (1879 - 1880) in one of the world's loveliest cities Whistler did not choose to paint the most popular scenes, such as those immortalized by Canaletto or Turner but he sought to capture the "Venice of the Venetians." In effect, what his work there has done is enable others to see the city of the canals from entirely different perspectives. It is his gift to the world.
With its sumptuous illustrations and enlightening text "Whistler and His Circle in Venice" is a boon for those interested in the artist and those who love the city itself.
