This unprecedented monograph on the print maker John Melville Kelly (1878-1962) is the first to trace the artist's extraordinary career from his early years in California to his stunning commercial success in Hawaii. While skilled in a variety of media, including painting and drawing, Kelly is best known for his alluringly beautiful and poignantly nostalgic etchings of native Hawaiians. His prints and drawings capture the essence of the islands and their people, even as they evoke a time and place far removed from modern experience.
