Claude Raguet Hirst: Transforming the American Still Life

by Martha M. Evans, Claude Raguet Hirst

This catalogue demonstrates the artist's dazzling aptitude for rendering the surfaces and textures of object in the trompe l'oeil (fools the eye) style of still-life painting. Hirst created works that could appeal to both men and women, in contrast to her male colleagues who painted primarily for a male audience.
