Now, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of his death, the Royal Academy will hold a major exhibition, to which this book serves as a catalogue. Included are 128 color plates, additional illustrations, and never-before-seen photographs. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Worth the money!A well-presented book; and most interesting details of the artist's life an times. Slight disappointment in the plates - not all in colour and not full-page size. It is however, an extensive look at the artist and his work, I believe worth owning if you are interested in the genre. Not so interested myself in the sculpture side of his work and the small black and white photos of same do not show from all angles, but in general a good purchase.
