James Tissot (Artist Monographs)

so its very difficult to find a book of Tissot in his religious topic paintings .So i decided to go for this one since it was what i wanted and for my surprise the little book contains a good amount of Tissot christian illustrations. They are not big in size but enough. Well reproduce to enjoy!! Oh and is a pocket book, a good one .

Buena calidad de las hojas y de las fotos

Love his work

Si te lo permites es un iaje en el tiempo

A small book containing beautiful plates covering the astounishing work of Tissot which includes oil paintings and lithogaphies, giving a proprer glimpse of one proficient and skilled artist who deserves such an overview of his creations like this one.

James Tissot was a artist that I had heard of but never studied. This book introduces you to a artist who has photographic precision, a technique which is rich in colour and precise in detail. "The fireplace" by Tissot shows a execution of detail in the women's dress that is breathtaking! Tissot side job as a illustrator for Vanity Fair served him well. But it's his time at the Louvre probably studying DiVinc's Mona Lisa eyes that draws you into each of the works in this book. This book is a excellent introduction to this artist. And would recommend this book not only for anyone studying art but also costume design of the early twentieth century.
