The 19th-century French painter Vuillard, who was friends with Bonnard and a key figure in the Nabi movement, receives extraordinary homage in this lavish catalogue. Guy Cogeval, the director of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, and three curators at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the MusÉe d'Orsay in Paris, and the Royal Academy of Arts in London (the exhibition will appear at all four museums) have authored the substantial catalogue entries as well as essays on the painter's life and career. Like the exhibition, the catalogue provides exhaustive coverage of Vuillard's oeuvre, featuring paintings, prints, and many photographs he took of his friends, family, colleagues, and models. The catalogue is copublished with Yale U. Press (their ISBN is 0-300- 09737-9). Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
