5.0 out of 5 stars James Tissot, April 29 2001
By CMA "CD Junkie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: James Tissot (Hardcover)
The paintings of James Tissot both reveal and pose questions concerning his subjects. Many works have seemingly deliberate contradictions. I found myself engrossed in each scene. This particular book is a beautiful collection of his most recognizable pieces.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Book!, Jan 10 2005
By Jane E. Rockley - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: James Tissot (Hardcover)
I have a fondness for both James Tissot and Alma-Tadema, and bought both books recently. What I liked best about this James Tissot book was, opposite each plate was a description of the painting, the year it was painted, and the probable explanations of who was in the painting and what it represented. The beginning of the book has a good biography of the artist, and reasons behind his fascination with beautiful women in wonderful clothes! A lovely book, I recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Tissot, Mar 23 2006
By C - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: James Tissot (Paperback)
This is an attractive and interesting book, containing many of James Tissot's best paintings with detailed accounts of the year each was painted, the current location of the work, how it was recieved when first exhibited and the story behind it. It also has a very good introduction about his life and work. Highly recommended to any Tissot, costume or Victorian enthusiast.
