About This Item
Kansas City, Missouri: Frank Glenn Publishing Co., 1946. 8vo. This is a fine copy of the fascinating story of La Belle Ferronniere a painting attributed to Da Vinci until Joseph Duveen and his cronies decided it was a forgery with the original in the Louvre. The introduction by Benton and his scathing attack on the art world is reason enough to buy this book but the story is fascinating and this copy is signed by Benton on a tipped in page.
