Summary: Beautiful Book!
Review: I have a fondness for both James Tissot and Alma-Tadema, and bought both books recently. What I liked best about this James Tissot book was, opposite each plate was a description of the painting, the year it was painted, and the probable explanations of who was in the painting and what it represented. The beginning of the book has a good biography of the artist, and reasons behind his fascination with beautiful women in wonderful clothes! A lovely book, I recommend it.

Review: The paintings of James Tissot both reveal and pose questions concerning his subjects. Many works have seemingly deliberate contradictions. I found myself engrossed in each scene. This particular book is a beautiful collection of his most recognizable pieces.
