5.0 out of 5 stars A dazzling achievment by a gifted art historian., 31 Aug 1999
By A Customer
A work of major importance in the history of modernism, David Anfam's catalogue raisonne is brilliant, lively, entertaining, and handsome. Combining vigorous scholarship with creative imagination, it offers the best ever understanding of Rothko and must be considered a prerequisite to any and all encounters with Rothko. Anfam's eloquent text takes the reader through the paintings in a most delightful way while the paintings themselves are a joy to see thanks to what surely were monumental efforts on the part of all those involved with design and production. This book is the best of its kind in every way and a bargain at the price!

5.0 out of 5 stars page after page of living colors...., 13 Nov 1998
By A Customer
It is difficult to sit down and look through this whole book at once; the beauty of the body of Rothko's work is overwhelming. At first I was disappointed that the reproductions did not fill up the whole page, but the smaller format permitted me to feel better the true sizes of the paintings in relation to one another, the largest of his works given a full page. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves Rothko- keep in mind that works on paper are not included, so some favorites may not be in the book. It was worth the price, I am glad to share my apartment with this 14 pound tome.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is the definitive and final book on Rothko, 3 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Within the world of American art, Mark Rothko increasingly looms as one of the foremost American painters of this century. All the more important, then that a definitive edition of his work be available to scholars, museums and the general public. And to put it quite simply, David Anfam has done exactly this, and to a superlative degree The illustrations are excellent,and no less important is the fine and insightful commentary and scholarly opinion offered by Anfam. Anfam's knowledge is most impressive, and his reader is fortunate, indeed, to be given the context of Rothko and his work, both in terms of art and the larger American culture. Any library or person interested in twentieth century American art must simply have this book.
