Wonderful art book!

This book will definitely appeal to fans of Impressionism as well as those who live in NYC. This book has wonderful paintings and sketches done at the turn of the century which also includes a bit of history of the artist and/or painting. It is organized by sections such as Central Park, Waterfront, etc. Superb book!
