About This Item
Frank Reaugh stared painting cattle in the 1880's with pastels and oil. A plein air style painter, he loved the vast plains and the dwindling herds of Texas Longhorn cattle. His home/studio in the Oak Cliff part of Dallas is preserved and has a historic marker. There have been several exhibits and retrospectives of his work, but this book is among the first.
The introduction is by Donald Weismann, who was Emeritus University Professor in the Arts at the University of Texas at Austin. He is author of 10 books and lots of articles. Laid in is an invitation to the Premier Showing of Frank Reaugh's work at the Dallas City Hall's, Great Hall on May 5, 1986. Sixty-one color plates on glossy stock. The book has some foxing on the inside cover and front free end paper. There is light even toning around the edges. The spine has a little bump on the top. The jacket has some shelf wear and is slightly yellowed, but there are no tears or chipping. A very good first edition copy.
