By Mary N. Balcomb.
Collects the dramatic and sensitive portraits in charcoal and oils by Fechin (1881-1955). This Russian immigrant was deeply influenced by French Impressionists, using their palette and brush strokes but applying them with a heavier, darker and distinctly Russian flavor. He was also a master sculptor, woodcarver and ceramist. 150 illustrations, 60 color, realistic drawings, vibrant impressionistic paintings and sculpture. Subjects are mostly people, often faces, Native Americans and others. Some nudes. Foreword by the artist's daughter, a history of his art career; and an essay on art by Fechin.
