A beautiful new book on Victorian artist,
2000-06-05
It is wonderful that Phaidon Press has decided to publish an art book on this lesser known Victorian artist. More a Neo-Classical Romantic artist than a Pre-Raphaelite, Albert Moore creates langerous scenes of lovely maidens clad in classical garb (often white flowing togas). For their aesthetic quality alone, the paintings by this artist are little jewels. Phaidon has produced an attractive book with scholarly text that befits the artist and his work.
