Book
Softbound. Condition: VG+. Color illustrated wraps. 197 pp., over 110 color plates, many smaller bw images also. The exhibition for which this book serves as catalogue to, included 73 works by this American master. Martin Johnson Heade (1819-1904) had the longest career and produced perhaps the most varied body of work of any American painter of the nineteenth century. His prolific oeuvre ranges from American coastal marshes and marine landscapes to the lush tropical splendor of South and Central American landscapes, birds, and flowers. An independent thinker as well as a world traveler, Heade developed a singular approach to landscape and still life painting, adapting some elements of the style and practice of the Hudson River School to his own more Darwinian vision. While Heade had only a minor reputation in his own day and was completely forgotten for many decades after his death, he is now rightly regarded as an artist of great significance and originality, and as the only American whose landscapes and still lifes are equally important. In this elegantly illustrated book, the catalogue for the second major retrospective of Heade's work in thirty years, Theodore Stebbins and his collaborators focus on the major themes of Heade's work: seascapes, salt marshes, landscapes, tropical landscapes, the "gems" of Brazil (as hummingbirds are known), passion flowers, orchids, and his late work in Florida. There are also chapters on Heade's critics and the development of Heade's painting technique. A perfect companion book to the catalogue raisonne on his works by Stebbins.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First Edition. Demy table, [27.75cm/11inches], full chrome-embossed cypress-green cloth with mylar-protected dust jacket, pp.197, indexed. Illustrated with b-w halftones, colour plates &tc. Please feel free to ask for particulars and/or additional photographs. . Maxim Karolik loved Heade and gave the Museum many of his paintings as well as works by other nineteenth-century American artists. However, he had not acquired a large tropical landscape by Heade and the MFA purchased "Coast of Jamaica" in 1981, to fill this gap. The delicate handling of foliage, the luminous treatment of the sea, and the drama of the fast-moving storm make this painting a fitting addition to the Museum's unsurpassed collection of Heade's work.
