Andrew Forge Books

" ... Andrew Forge's essay pays moving tribute to the artist's legacy; Robert Gordon's selections from Manet's intimate letters and from contemporary documents (all impeccably translated by the poet Richard Howard) add poignance to the reader's experience of the last works of one of the most innovative painters of the nineteenth century, whom many consider to be the first modern artist."--Inside jacket

Examines the works of Monet from a new perspective, and traces the changes in his style as brought about by the changes and problems in his personal life
