JUST WONDERFUL

Joachim is a genious ..appears in my film Monet's PalateMonet's Palate - A Gastronomic View from the Gardens of Giverny

A Literary artistic treasure

Highyly reccomend it. It is an amazing portrayal of the arist life and provides a complete account of Camille's various artisit treasures. Preceding this book, there was not much info on Camille that could be commonly found in bookstores. Upon reading the book, i found it unlocked a completely new door to camilles work. Litereary gold, it has so much more than pictures in it. Filed under complete keys you oughtto understand about camille. An unforgettalievable treasure.

Balanced and Substantial

The number, size, and quality of color reproductions justifies the physical weight of this book. Joachim Pissarro's commentary interests and informs the reader without making the volume unduly heavy intellectually. I found that the basic chronological organzation with some thematic digressions provided a good vantage point for understanding Pissarro's work.
