Beschreibung

Very good condition color photographic softcover wraps. Some rubbing, predominantly at the upper front left corner of the front cover, othewise the volume looks to have never been read as the spine is exceedingly tight and evidenced by no discernable hinge creases. All pages are in fine condition. Includes Foreword by Martin Wiesendanger, 1971; Acknowledgments by Martin and Margaret Wiesendanger 1971; and Notes on Collecting by W.E. Groves, April 1971. Profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs. ".The W.E. Groves Collection contains some fifteen hundred paintings , prints and watercolors, daguerrotypes and miniatures, including one hundred and fifty-five portaits and two hundred and seventeen landscapes pertaining to Louisiana. From these we selected the material in this catalouge. The collection further contains the I.M. Cline library, consisting of photographic and scrapbook material relative to New Orleans, a reference library pertaining to largely American artists, and a voluminous catalogue collection of both auctions and exhibitions. Last we mention the W.E. Groves archives of information relative to a 30 year period of intensive collecting." - excerpt from the Foreword by Martin Wiesendanger, New Orleans 1971.
