Since the 1970s, Richard and Jane Manoogian have collected some of the most celebrated examples of historical American Art, including Hudson River School, American impressionist, and trompe l'oeil paintings. This book documents an exhibition that includes such stellar exemplars of American art as Asher B. Durand, one of the fathers of the Hudson River School; Frederick Frieseke, a leading member of the American art colony at Giverny, France (the village that was home to Claude Monet); Frank Benson, whose iconic figure paintings incorporate impressionist brushwork while conveying a strong sense of his subjects' personalities; and William Michael Harnett, represented here by three remarkable trompe l'oeil compositions.
