Summary: Comprehensive review of the great artists best loved prints
Review: This book is a must for the serious collector of great De Chirico's graphic prints. The astounding informative nature of the subject of De Chirico prints from 1969 to 1977 must have taken a long time to compile. For De Chirico is very unknown in the United States, yet, in Europe he is considered by most as the Father of Surrealis. Both Magritte and Dali hailed him as a pioneer of metaphysical surrealistic imagery. This book is a wonderful reference for the serious collector. * A personal note - in my travels to Florence, Italy, I entered the Uffizi were is housed the worlds greatest collection of Renaissance Fine Art (owned at one time by the De Medici family) when I discovered , as I entered, the master sculpture work entitled "The Archaeologist" of none other than Giorgio De Chirico. De Chirico is the only artist of the 20th century that I know of to be exhibited in the great Uffizi.
