Harpercollins, 1985. First Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0064307107. Hardcover. Now in a protective archival removable mylar cover. This is a hardcopy edition! Dust jacket has tearing and scuffing along edges, corners and spine; tiny dent on back cover near spine. From the private library of journalist and publisher James Strohn Copley with his decorative book-plate on the front paste-down. Mr. Copley was the owner of the San Diego Union Tribune.

He wanted every book “to represent dramatic, humorous, romantic, passionate, or tragic events in the lives of real people unconsciously caught in the weave of American history. ” Small bookshop stamp on inside of back cover. Book Description - "George Inness and the Visionary Landscape presents both a concise overview of Inness's life and work and a focused examination of his philosophical and religious preoccupations. It shows how Inness, inspired by the ideas of the scientist-mystic Emanuel Swedenborg, devised a new artistic vocabulary to convey his understanding of the personal visionary experience. Moreover, it reveals commonalities between Inness's prescient work and efforts by the psychologist- philosopher William James to validate mystical states of mind. It explains for the first time how Inness treated landscape painting as a form of philosophical inquiry that could communicate his holistic belief in the unity of nature and spirit."
