Highlights are certainly the works by Benjamin West, J.M. Whistler and John Singer Sargent.

Essays by leading authorities on the artist's work accompany a stunning collection of nearly two hundred photographs by modernist American photographer Charles Sheeler, offering a landmark retrospective of of the work of the influential master of twentieth-century photography.

In 1983, The Boston Museum of Fine Arts was challenged by the Louvre in Paris to put together a massive exposition of important American Paintings. This catalog is the result with countless color plates of fine American oil paintings. This book includes the 1983 newspaper article and a folder on the exposition. The show was in Boston, Corcoran Gallery in Washington, and the Grand Palais in Paris. all in 1983-84.
