Published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name at Yale University Art Gallery in 2005, this catalog presents the work of Edward Lamson Henry (1841-1919), who painted romanticized images of the past, from historical sites and events to everyday life in Colonial America. Exhibition curator Lansing explains the important role that these "historical fictions" played in creating a unified national identity, particularly during the turbulent period of increased industrialization and urbanization after the Civil War. Includes over 20 full color plates. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
