Seurat (Colour Plate Books)
Low stock: 1 left
"It is true that Seurat produced some of the most perfectly satisfying formal designs since Piero della Francesca, and also that he evolved a highly self-conscious and intellectual method of execution... but it is also true - and this is a fact which Fry admits but of which he minimizes the importance - that his pictures represent in vivid form the life of the middle-classes of Paris and its suburbs in the 1880's. It would be foolish to read into his painting a social or political programme, but it cannot be a matter of chance that such a high proportion of his small early paintings represent subjects like stonebreakers or peasants at work in the fields." -- Foreword, page 7.

Condition Descriptions

- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or price price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
