Following recent exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Museum of American Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, this updated, revised and expanded edition presents the entire range of Cadmus' remarkable achievements, all executed with the technical virtuosity and anatomical precision of the Renaissance Masters. The text by the late Lincoln Kirstein is enhanced by excerpts from contemporaneous reviews, articles and comments by the artist about his methods and point of view.

This reprint of the 1984 edition contains over 150 paintings, etchings and drawings, with 86 pages of full colour, often with more than one image to the page. It includes all of Cadmus' paintings since 1984. The interesting page layout with narrow margins does lend a very busy appearance to the page, compounded by the often hectic composition of Cadmus' work. This is perhaps one artist who would benefit from the current trend of presenting the image in plenty of white space. It does at least attempt to present the images on the same page as they are discussed in the text.
As for the reproductions there is only one word: splendid. The images are crisp and bright and the colours strong, with the drawings sensitively presented in colour too. The pictures are frequently as large as the page will allow with some full page bleed or even double page. This all adds to the tantalising and provocative nature of the artist's work, making them very desirable indeed. ( )
