Thomas Kinkade
Masterworks of Light
Thomas Kinkade's
light-filled paintings of cottages, mountain vistas, peaceful towns, and
bustling cities have become an American success story. With his special
artistry and unique spiritual vision, Kinkade strikes
a chord with a large audience who admire and collect
reproductions of his work. This generous selection of his finest images is
meticulously reproduced--and includes old favorites, as well as new work that has never before been published in an art book.
In her introduction, Wendy J. Katz places Kinkade's work in both an art historical context--pairing
him with Thomas Cole and Albert Bierstadt--and a
contemporary context by examining his popularity and place in today's popular
culture.
Organized by theme---The
Sublime: Landscapes of Light; Narrative: Stories of Light; Nostalgia: Memories
of Light; Moments of Light; and The Artist's Hand.
Masterworks of Light identifies
Thomas Kincade as a true master of landscape painting.
