Description: New York, Spanierman Gallery, 2008. Hardbound. VOLUME 3 ONLY. Green cloth. 479 pp. 76 color and 391 bw plates. Volume III takes up the record at 1877 and continues to Homer’s departure for England in March 1881. The factual descriptions and histories of approximately 400 paintings and drawings are identified in separate entries; a black and white illustration of each work accompanies its entry. A selection of seventy-six paintings are also reproduced in color in a separate section chosen to suggest what Homer’s contemporaries saw of his work in the major exhibitions of the period. Also continuing from the previous volumes is the “Summary Biography,” which introduces much new information on Homer’s life, and challenges many of the well-worn myths and legends about him.
