This book is a former library book with stamped words - see pics. A leader in the Neo-Impressionist movement, the French painter Paul Signac (1863-1935) is best known for the intense color effects in his oil landscapes and marine canvases. However, it is in his largely unknown graphic works on paper-the precise black-and-white sketches and fluid watercolors that filled his sketchbooks, and that are published here for the first time-that his evolution as an artist emerges. This catalogue raisonn-designed to accompany the first exhibition of 133 of Signac's watercolors and drawings-is the only book in print on this well-loved artist. Presenting Signac's graphic oeuvre in its entirety, the stunning volume serves as a visual diary, tracing his life, his travels, and his artistic explorations, capturing his passion for boats and water, and providing a new understanding of this important artist. 157 illustrations, 140 in full color, 11 x 93_4" MARINA FERRETTI BOCQUILLON has organized many international exhibitions on Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. She is the author of several essays and previous catalogues on Signac, as well as many articles on 19th-century art. CHARLES CACHIN, a physician, contributes insights gleaned both as the artist's son-in-law and from his lifelong interest in Signac's work.
