The art of Dwight W. Tryon : an appreciation

Caffin, Charles Henry, 1854-1918 · 1909 · [New York : The Forest Press] · 8 pictures

Charles Henry Caffin's 1909 appreciation of the American painter Dwight William Tryon, published in New York by The Forest Press, is a monograph on one artist's work rather than a general survey. The reproductions are tonal halftone plates of his landscapes, shown rotated on the page, with soft wooded banks, still water, and misty distances that a designer could draw on for quiet, low-contrast atmospheric tones and horizon compositions.

Tryon, Dwight William, 1849-1925
