Georges Braque: His Graphic Work
Braque, Georges. Georges Braque: His Graphic Work. Harry N. Abrams, 1961. Hardbound. Intro by Werner Hofmann. Like his father and grandfather, Le Havre-born Braque trained to be a house painter before joining the Fauves and going on to paint side by side with Picasso in 1911 in the Pyrenees, where the pair innovated cubism and so intimately interwove their processes that art historians often struggle to distinguish between the two's paintings. This classic Abrams monograph features lovely white-on-black stamped boards, a wraparound two-color jacket, and 174 reproductions of this often overlooked painter/collagist/printmaker's compositions.
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Only very light shelf-wear to both book and jacket. Art.
