Mark Rothko The Works on Canvas Catalogue Raisonne

"The great advantage of Anfam's book is that it is a catalogue raisonne, which means it begins and ends with the works themselves and moves outward from them, leaving a conscientious reader with concrete evidence on which to form his own judgment....[T]his is not a traditional catalogue raisonne, in which the facts are dryly recorded, but a lively account of the feints and dodges of an extremely complicated artist--a man with conflicting desires to retreat and guard his secrets, and to commune with a sympathetic audience.Anfam, David is the author of 'Mark Rothko The Works on Canvas Catalogue Raisonne' with ISBN 9780300074895 and ISBN 0300074891.
