Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition); as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits; maps; sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images; so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts; we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

It is unconscionable that University of Chicago Press published this fabulous text on Inness work; but included a mere twenty-one color prints; at that most of them two a page; and charges $50 for it! If you consider buying it; do so with the sure knowledge that Dr. DeLues work is a classic; not to be missed; her analysis extremely depthful; her prose elegant. As for UofC Press; how greedy. For shame!17 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Expected more color platesBy Michael J. CalabaThere were 21 color plates. Some of the color plates were not very large. It was my fault for not checking more; before I purchased the book. Lots of history to read; but I was more interested in seeing the paintings of George Inness. Many black and white photos; which are helpful; in seeing values in paintings. Perhaps by the time I read all of the book; I will be much happier with my purchase.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Cynthia KathLovely book!
