Brand new quality in shrink wrap. The book is based on a PBS TV show from 2016 and offers a new view of the artist's Isles of Shoals paintings. I also own "Childe Hassam: An Island Garden Revisited" published in 1990. Together these books capture the essence of Childe Hassam's Isles of Shoals paintings and the environment in which he painted them.. Arrived on time and in excellent condition.
