Celebrating masterpieces of Spanish art in US collections, each book in this exciting new series focuses on a single work of art on the occasion of its exhibition at the Meadows Museum in Dallas, TX. An in-depth essay by a contemporary scholar illuminates the work, along with detailed photography of the object featured in a lively design.
Written by Peter Cherry and full of sumptuous illustrations, this inaugural volume of the Masterpiece in Residence series highlights the stunning painting Still Life with Quince, Cabbage, Melon, and Cucumber (c. 1602) by Juan Snchez Cotn (15601627) from the San Diego Museum of Art.
