"Our plan has been to survey for the first time two hundred years of portrait painting in the Hudson Valley north of New York City. Ideally, each picture in our show should represent an individual important in the history, economy, or culture of the region, should be painted by an artist active between Albany and Yonkers, and should be drawn from a public or private collection in the Valley. Nearly all the paintings in the exhibition fulfill these criteria. " Forty b/w reproductions, each of which, with appropriate text (which includes information on the artist, medium, and a short biography of the subject) , takes up a full page. In addition there are five small portraits, one small group portrait, and one small landscape. Includes an Index to Artists.. Good+ .
