From the Dust Jacket: "This catalogue is the first to documents the collection of American figurative sculpture in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, from the early nineteenth century to post-World War II... Described here are 171 sculptures, including 70 in marble, 64 in bronze, 18 in plaster, and 19 in other materials... For each of the seventy known sculptors a biography gives a full account of the artist's origins, training, and career. Moreover, the professional lives of several sculptors -- such as Edward R. Thaxter, Philip Shelton Sears, Mary Orne Bowditch, and George Aarons -- are documented in detail for the first time. An appendix provides a ground-breaking technical analysis of the bronzes."

Becchia, and Katharine Lane Weems.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
