Edward Hicks [1780 - 1849] was an American Folk painter, a distinguished minister of the Society of Friends, and he also became a Quaker icon because of his paintings. Although other books have chronicled the career and life of America's most beloved folk artist, this is the first book to thoughtfully integrate and discuss his secular and religious concerns as they affected his artistic production, particularly the creation of his "Peaceable Kingdom" paintings. Edges jacket with minimal wear. Fine copy.
