This magnificent treasury showcases 21 paintings--by such masters as Renoir, Monet, and Seurat--given to the Museum of Modern Art in New York by David and Peggy Rockefeller. Reproduced in full color, the works provide a fresh look at the early flowering of the modern spirit in painting. Kirk Varnedoe presents an illuminating commentary on each painting.
