69292X1 Reprint Edition. The Noonday Press, New York: 1958. 128 pages. Softcover. Good condition. The late Roger Fry was an art critic of unequaled perception and influence. One of his missions was to work for a better understanding of the Impressionist school and, above all, to claim for Cezanne (1839-1906 the great place that was rightfully his. In Cezanne Fry wrote a critical analysis which has never been surpassed. He achieved with conspicuous sussess a two-fold aim: to show the essential development of the painter's genius and to approach his work as it really is; as Fry himself words it, to detect "the profound difference between Cezanne's message and what we have made of it." The result is a book, couched in Fry's most lucid, penetrating manner which is of great technical value to the painter and student, and which offers to the layman an illuminating demonstration of the essential nature of Cezanne's art. Includes 54 illustrations. $29.45USD
