About this copy

Volume Two of Meyer Schapiro's celebrated Selected Papers, Modern Art gathers his brilliant essays on the great painters of the modern era. Drawing on classical mythology, psychology, literature and social history, Schapiro brings Cezanne, Seurat, Van Gogh, Picasso, Matisse, Chagall and Mondrian to life with imaginative scholarship, incisive analysis and a lively wit. It remains a touchstone for anyone who loves modern art.

This hardback comes complete with its dust jacket, which reproduces Georges Seurat's 'Sunday on the Island of La Grande Jatte' in glorious colour. This copy carries the marks of a former library life.

Condition

Book
Good - a sound, firm copy with tight binding. Library withdrawal stamps and labels, tape repairs to the endpapers and some foxing to the preliminary pages.
Dust jacket
Good - present and attractive, with the Seurat image still bright. Library protector, tape residue and some wear to the edges.

A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
