About This Item
New York: G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 1970. First Edition. Large Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. 12x10x1. First edition. scratches on rear jacket panel,. 1970 Large Hardcover. 256 pp. With 230 reproductions, including 60 in color. Although Mr. Flexner concedes the charm and talents of the naive artists of the period--in particular Porter, Hicks, Field and Elmer--he challenges the widely held view that they were more "American" than more sophisticated painters or, indeed, genuine folk artists. He finds much to admire in those artists of Indian life and the frontier: Catlin, Bodmer and Miller.
