MacLean, Frank. Henry Moore, R. A. *$1.25. Scribner.
“This volume in “The makers of British art” series is a thoroly workmanlike ‘life,’ narrating the details of Moore’s rather uneventful career, describing and characterizing all his works of importance and certainly in its estimate of those works, doing full justice to the painter—comparatively few of whose pictures have been seen on this side of the Atlantic. Numerous halftone blocks help to give some faint idea of the man’s power and versatility in depicting his chosen theme.... A final chapter touches briefly but illuminatingly on the work of the few noteworthy painters of the sea with whom Henry Moore was contemporary—John Brett, Whistler, Claude Monet, Mesdag—and several lesser British marine artists.” (Ind.)
“Doubtless will long remain the standard biography of England’s foremost marine painter.”
