THE OPAQUE DECANTER
Words to the Music of Painting


THE OPAQUE DECANTER: Words to the Music of Painting Poetry, art, and art history mingle in the crucible of James E. Dammann’s new book, The Opaque Decanter: Words to the Music of Painting. The resulting alchemy creates an intensely evocative, you-are-there experience that transports the reader straight into the world portrayed in each of the paintings in the book, most of which are instantly recognizable masterpieces by such artists as Van Gogh, Picasso, Goya, and Manet.
