Cuban Art and National Identity: The Vanguardia Painters, 1927-1950
I have just discovered the wonderful art of Charley Harper.
This book is exclusively about North American birds, all illustrated with Harper's unique painting style. It is 146 pages, every illustration takes up a whole page with a description on the adjoining page by Harper.
Sometimes he gets a little self-righteous about the "evil humans" infringing on the birds' habitat. His rebuke is a little dated as well since his illustrations were published in Ford Times in 1960. Most of these birds have made a dramatic comeback. The mockingbird for instance is in no danger here in Texas.
All the photos are in color and beautiful. The book is about 8.5 inches tall and 11 inches wide. A nice size to enjoy these beautiful paintings.
