商品簡介
Born in 1804 and raised in the maritime community of Gloucester, Massachusetts, Luminist painter Fitz H. Lane's sea images have become celebrated examples of the form and his work has been exhibited at the White House and numerous museums and have been no less prized by the general public. Not surprisingly, then, many works have been published analyzing Lane's work, but much less is known about the man himself. This work by Craig (a curator at the Cape Ann Historical Association in Gloucester) represents an effort to reconstruct a more detailed understanding of Lane's life and historical and cultural contexts and the relationship of these to the paintings so prized by so many.
