Awash in Color

By Sue Welsh Reed and Carol Troyen

Book Overview

Many consider that North Americas most original contribution to art is the medium of watercolour, as no other country can boast of watercolourists of such inventiveness and brilliance as, among others, Sargent, Homer, Marin, Burchfield, and Hopper. Awash in Color features the most beautiful watercolours in the impressive collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The authors survey the development of the medium and discuss each painting to provide, in aggregate, a history of North American watercolours that has become the standard reference on the subject.
