From the dustjacket's front flap: ""Tonalism", primarily a school of American landscape painting, flourished during the years 1880-1915. The Tonalists evoked an intimate and personal reaction to Nature in their images of moonlight, twilight and dawn -- the hushed, quiet times of the day. Electing to paint these themes with a limited color scale dependent upon tonal hues, the Tonalists conveyed a more personal, suggestive world without the detailed verisimilitude of Nature" Near Fine / Near Fine.
