Customer Reviews

Interesting exploration of three great artists

This is an excellent book for anyone interested in the work of Eakins, Sargent and James. The book primarily discusses their portraiture in light of art historical trends so it is helpful for the reader to have some knowledge of the artists' work before she begins reading. David Lubin is an excellent art historian and he provides the reader with interesting, engaging material. I especially liked his discussion of Thomas Eakins. Highly recommended.
