George Bellows by Robert Burleigh
from A NYT review:
Most children's books about celebrated artists don't open with anything like fight night at Sharkey's. (Not many grown-up books do either.) But a scene in which two boxers "bob and weave, jabbing and pummeling each other with muscular arms" is a fitting way to introduce the American painter George Bellows, who is also the subject of a large retrospective exhibition currently at the National Gallery of Art in Washington.Add a Comment
