"Extensively detailed and groundbreaking biographical study of life and work of Pedro Blanes Viale, the Uruguayan artist who died in 1926 and whose work can be linked to that of Spain's Santiago Rusiñol and Anglada-Camarasa. Sources are well documented. Contains numerous reproductions of artist's work, and photo-documentation of his personal life in b/w and color. Excellent source for understanding Uruguayan art at the beginning of the century and artist's contribution to the visual arts of his country"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
