MONET ROTHKO BOOK

This comparison of the works of Monet and Rothko offers a fresh and stimulating look at these pioneers of abstraction and masters of color. Recent research on late Impressionism has highlighted the striking similarities between the work of Claude Monet, a leading figure of Impressionism, and that of abstract painters such as Mark Rothko. This book establishes an unprecedented dialogue between the paintings of both artists, who explored the frontiers of abstraction. It analyzes the astonishing coincidences between their works, created almost half a century apart, as well as the meaning of the differences in the styles of these two great masters.
