2019-05 – Robert Adam : the creative mind : from the sketch to the finished drawing. A.A. Tait (Author) 1996. 48 Pages.
This is an exhibit catalog book from an exhibit at The Frick Collection in 1997-1998. I am a big fan of Robert Adam. The man was a genius. This book is about work sketches done throughout the career of Robert Adam, from his sketching as a student to near the end of his life. The images are ably discussed in the text and the sampling of images demonstrates breadth and development. I wish the images had been larger, but that would have not probably been practical with this format. A good book for fans seeking insight.
