Chartwell Books, 2007, softcover, 448 pages, illustrated, index, condition: as new.
Maxfield Parrish is remembered as one of the greatest illustrators of the "Golden Age of American Illustration" a period from about 1895 to 1930 of un paralleled excellence in illustrative art. Parrish's images achieved remarkable popularity and critical acclaim when they appeared on the covers of countless periodicals and books making him the most celebrated illustrator of the first half of the 20th century incredibly famous and immensely wealthy.
There are about 300 reproductions of Parrish's work here, which give a good idea of his talent and his range. I can not say how accurate the reproductions are. Some of these same pictures shown online have much richer colors, but I don't know which versions are closer to the originals.

There are also photographs. Some of these, of course, show Parrish and members of his family. The book describes Maxfield Parrish as being "as handsome as a movie star." The photographs show that this is no exaggeration. There are also a number of fascinating photographs of people modeling for Parrish, mostly in costume.
