Reviews
This is a small book (about 6.25" x 6.75") but has close ups of several areas of some paintings andis 255 page. It includes a well written, easy to read, biography of a fascinating and influential artist with many shakes of painting, more traditional, then expressionist and fauvist / abstract. The colors are very accurate, the sizes of original art pieces are noted. The only problem I had was some of the finite details for a an class reproduction piece but the quality of the pictures along with information included about the artist and his life were great.Franz Marc was a brilliant artist with colorful life story. He was drafted for WWI and painted tarpaulins in the style of master artists to camouflage equipment for the new style of war, with airplanes. His paintings were deemed deviant art when the National Socialist (Nazi) Party rose to power in 1936 Germany. Marc's paintings set new records at auction in the 1990's. His, and many other amazing artists, work have been recovered as recently as 2012 after being hidden away duringI recommend this book.
