Description: The Symbolists by Philippe Jullian (1975 Phaidon Hardcover Edition)"The Symbolists is a beautiful book going into detail, the inspiration, philosophy, and work of the great symbolist painters mainly from France and Belgium. The author also touches on decadence and some of its writers like Huysmans and Lorrain who’s writing served as an inspiration for many of the symbolist painters." - Patrick G.P., GoodReads"As to this particular book, it is excellent. Philippe Jullian had a thorough knowledge of the subject and wrote very well. Unlike his book Dreamers of Decadence, in this volume almost all the artists and works mentioned in the text are illustrated. To get the most out of the book be sure to read the notes on the text and plates, which do a great job of fleshing out the main text with small details and anecdotes taken from friends and foes of the time." - M. Myshack, Amazon Review"One of the "bibles" of Symbolist Art ... Although this title is now over 30 years old, it still remains of the most beautiful and best introductions to this wonderful, weird, and dreamy periods in art history. A real treasure!" - Proust Reader, Amazon ReviewVintage Hardcover / Measures 11.5" x 10" / Phaidon / 1975 / Very Good Condition
