Summary: My Favorite Coffee Table Book
Review: Fabulous retrospective of Maxfield Parrish's finest work. The illustrations are superb. This book is expensive, but worth the money. If you're looking for a price guide, I suggest Erwin Flack's book. -- James Halperin, sf novelist and Parrish fanatic.

Summary: Excellent for every Parrish fan!
Review: I bought this book and I never regret of getting another Parrish art book again. This artbook is excellent with deep details of Parrish's way of study through his paintings. Theories based on his view of perspective and composition, it is something great to read about! However, one little thing I personally find missing is the "Dream Days" series, that is missing from this artbook and should have been included. Otherwise, get the book and you'll fall in love with Parrish blue all over again.

Review: This book is excellent! It has one of the best Maxfield Parrish selected works. A lot of prints and images for you to be inspired all over again. It also contains pages of great readings, such as a section about Parrish's perspective theory and theory. It also show close-ups of Parrish's studies. It is a great read! However, the only thing disappoints me is the absence of the "Dream Days" series. Other than that, get it and you won't regret it!

Summary: The Publisher, Ten Speed Press
Review: We have expanded the original edition of this splendid celebration of the work of Maxfield Parrish, with some works recently rediscovered by museums and collectors. There are 28 completely new color plates made from original paintings, along with 30 photographs by Parrish. New pieces in this edition includes ROMANCE from THE KNAVE OF HEARTS, with jewel-like tones and delicate chiaroscuro, and the seldom seen PHOEBUS IN HALZAPHRON, a monochromatic work of searing purity. No collection of his work at this level of quality exists anywhere. "The reproductions, many never before published, showcase Parrish's luminous, otherworldly art to full advantage." --Booklist
