Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "This publication presents recent research in the field of western American narrative painting, and focuses on nine artists who helped to develop the images of the trapper, flatboatman, pioneer, Indian, and other American "types." It shows the familiar paintings of George Caleb Bingham in context with those of less-known artists such as William Rauney and Charles Wilmar and the relatively unknown works of Charles Deas. The essays demonstrate how the images of these and other artists were related to literature and to the popular prints through which they were transmitted to a wide audience. Narrative painting was especially prevalent in the years 1830 to 1860, when much of the public perception of the West was formed, and the scenes of the familiar--of everyday life--helped the unfamiliar and exotic West become an integral part of America's concept of itself." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: George Caleb Bingham, The Native Talent; Charles Deas; William Ranney; Arthur F.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: None (as issued). Volume itself has red cloth covers with sharp gilt lettering on the spine. 193 pages, including an index and a fold-out map. Stillman's letters were first published in The Crayon, a prominent but short-lived journal of landscape art, in 1855. The obscurity of the journal hid the value of the letters until Ron Tyler rescued them. Stillman traveled from Port Lavaca through Anaqua, Goliad, Helena, San Antonio, and as far as the Pecos River. His account supplements the diary of his friend and fellow diarist, Frederick Law Olmsted.

This book is comprised of a series of Stillman's letters from the Texas wilderness giving a remarkable picture of Texas during an important and little-understood time in the state's history.During his six-month stay in Texas, Stillman commented in his letters on geography; the mixing of Spanish colonial, Mexican, southern, German, and black cultures; the settlement of west Texas and the conflicts with Indians, and the social and cultural aspects of life on the frontier.
