5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Alice Schille (1869-1955) is considered to have been one of America's premier female watercolorists whose still lifes, landscapes, gardens, market scenes, harbor views, mothers and children depictions are timeless in their appeal and creatively balance realism with sentiment. This compendium of 185 colorplates and 34 b/w illustrations is augmented with an informative commentary by William H. Gerdts (Professor Emeritus of Art History at the Graduate School of the City University of New York). Alice Shille is an important, core addition to any personal, academic, or community library American art history reference collection.
