Provenance

Where it came from

Art Books: A Basic Bibliography of Monographs on Artists was first published in 1985 to provide a systematic guide for librarians, researchers, and art historians navigating the vast output of artist monographs. Compiled by Wolfgang M. Freitag, a distinguished Harvard University art librarian, the work was intended to consolidate bibliographic information that had previously been scattered across disparate catalogs, offering a structured approach to identifying authoritative texts on individual artists.

The second edition, building upon the initial scholarly reception, refined the selection process and expanded the scope to reflect advancements in art historical research. Freitag designed the bibliography to act as a definitive reference tool, emphasizing clarity and accuracy in citation. It has remained a significant resource in the field of art librarianship, praised for its meticulous organization and the depth of its expertise in the canonical literature of Western art history.
