"The genius of the Impressionist artist hailed as a father of modern art couldn t find a more worthy and respectful tribute than in this hefty tome focusing on the monumental collection at The Barnes Foundation, which began acquiring his works in 1912. The collection has never before been published in its entirety, and in such a lavish way, so here s a unique opportunity to explore every period of the master s career and fully grasp his genius from the comfort of your couch."  INDULGE
