A landmark, authoritative survey of this beloved American artist, featuring his most iconic landscapes, portraits, and nudes that reveal the depth, intimacy, and genius of one of the nation’s greatest painters. Celebrating the extraordinary legacy of Andrew Wyeth (1917–2009), this comprehensive volume brings together one hundred masterworks created over more than seven decades. From early childhood drawings and radiant watercolors to his masterful temperas for which he is best known, Wyeth’s paintings are deeply rooted in the landscapes of Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and mid-coast Maine. In ordinary barns, fields, interiors, and figures, he found stark and unexpected compositions that defined an art that was simultaneously modern and timeless. The book is accompanied by insightful commentary that illuminates Wyeth’s meticulous creative process, subtle palette, and unparalleled mastery of medium, while also exploring the vital role of Betsy James Wyeth, whose discerning eye and lifelong collaboration helped shape his career and legacy. Featuring rare archival photographs, an illustrated chronology, a family tree, and authoritative scholarship, this volume stands as an essential, sweeping account of one of the most important figures in twentieth-century American art, indispensable for collectors, scholars, and admirers alike.
