Art in France, 19001940 by Christopher Green

"Revelatory art history" Timothy Mathews, Times Higher Education Supplement "Lavishly illustrated with beautiful works of art... Especially strong and inviting is the section dealing with the 'lives' of artists, poets, art dealers, and collectors. Green writes well about a variety of topics: among them, tradition, modernity, the city. It is fascinating to see such figures as Matisse and Picasso reemerging throughout the book in these various contexts." Virginia Quarterly Review
Christopher Green is professor of the history of art at the Courtauld Institute, University of London. He is the author of Juan Gris, Cubism and Its Enemies, and Léger and the Avant-Garde, all published by Yale University Press.
