Leyendecker: American Imagist [Cutler, Laurence S., Goffman Cutler, Judy] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. J.C. Leyendecker: American Imagist Review: Beautiful book, well researched - I attended the recent show at the New York Historical Society showing Leyendecker's work. It was small, but well worth seeing. In advance, I wanted to learn more about the artist, and this book does an amazing job. Although Leyendecker let a rather reclusive life and didn't leave much for biographers to comb through, the authors of this book found just about every item about his family, life and work as an artist. They give a really full picture of the man, how he become a first rate illustrator, and was a the forefront of many new trends. First, the quality of the book itself is high. The colors are saturated and the images are well printed to see detail. Second, text is well written and balanced. Third, I really learned a lot about the graphic arts industry during his lifetime, how it changed it, how important it was to American life, and how the medium changed forever. It was a real eye-opener. The actual images are beyond gorgeous. The drawn men are what every man wants to be -- handsome, virile, and a consummate gentleman. The details of the images are jaw dropping in their virtuosity, and you wonder how any human could draw so convincingly. Review: Amazing book I love it! - This book is amazing! It has many different works of his and also has his life story and stories about the people closest to him. It serves as a slight biography of him, and it’s very cool to learn more about my favorite dead artist! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #118,915 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #148 in Arts & Photography Criticism #332 in Art History (Books) #404 in Pop Culture Art | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (873) | | Dimensions | 11.1 x 10.04 x 1.06 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | Grade level | 8 and up | | ISBN-10 | 0810995212 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0810995215 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | November 1, 2008 | | Publisher | Harry N.

It was small, but well worth seeing. In advance, I wanted to learn more about the artist, and this book does an amazing job.

It has many different works of his and also has his life story and stories about the people closest to him. It serves as a slight biography of him, and it’s very cool to learn more about my favorite dead artist! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautifully Done ,A fitting Tribute to a Legend! *by G***S on February 6, 2010* After reading so many negative reviews I have to say I expected to receive a sloppy, handwritten mess of a book..I am happy to say that is DEFINITELY NOT THE CASE! The illustrations are wonderful and the research that had to be done to compile this magnificent tribute was well beyond my expectations. I have to wonder, as I was scouring the book , what in the world was so wrong with the writing. Each section was thoughtfully worded and many details were fascinating and I am certain to be fact. I guess I am not that well versed on what a writers skill or wording SHOULD be but I must say I was thrilled to learn more about many of the details of "Joe's" life so long now private. I found myself overjoyed and many of the images I had never seen which was even more exciting! I was even more elated that they seem to start at the beginning and follow to the end of his career. In my eyes, it is all perfection. Again, I am only speaking as a Leyendecker fan, not as some prolific writer or art critic. Seems to me that if you want a beautiful reference book on his many beautiful works and at least want to have some insight on the man behind the masterpieces, this would be a wonderful choice for you. I am sure they may be some details that may not be 100% accurate but I do not get the feeling that the author believes that each detail is fact, as there were so many private moments throughout Layendeckers life. If you are looking for a book to enjoy and to share with others , this is a great read. Thanks to all of those who were a part of the making.! I feel a little closer to the legend than I ever have...! I am ordering a few more for gifts! Just the time to gather all of these beautiful works of art is well worth the price! ## Frequently Bought Together - J.C. Leyendecker: American Imagist - The Art of Robert E.
