Hartford and New Haven, CT: Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art in association with Yale University Press, 2001. First edition and first printing. Hardcover. 182 pages. Edited by Eric M. Zafran. Features essays by Stephen Kornhauser, Victor Merlhes, Charles Stuckey, Robert Welsh, Bogomila Welsh-Ovcharov, and Eric M. Zafran. Includes numerous color illustrations. The copy has the former owner signature of Douglas Druick, the small rubber stamp of author, curator, and one time director of The Art Institute of Chicago, on the front free endpaper and with some of his highlighting to the text. Otherwise a very good copy in a very good dust jacket with some minor wear. An interesting copy with a nice provenance.
