NICOLAI FECHIN [SOLD]

NICOLAI FECHIN

By Mary N. Balcomb

Publisher: Northland Press

First edition hardback with slip cover, 1975.  167 pages, fully illustrated

The distinctive, broad strokes of color on canvas serve as a signature for Nicolai Fechin, one of the exceptional artists of Russia and America.  His career spanned the globe from birth and art training in Russia to painting in the United States, Mexico, the South Seas, and the Far East.  To say he was without peer would be naive, but to say his talent was enormous and his style proficient would be inadequate. More than sixty color plates and one hundred black and white illustrations will speak to you more directly than any words could do.
