“Impressionism in Canada: A Journey of Rediscovery... is essentially a missing
chapter from the history of World Impressionism itself”- GUY WILDENSTEIN, The Wildenstein Institute, Paris
“The fluent style and wealth of information in this book is encompassing
and tells the whole story”- DR. LEO JANSEN, Curator of Paintings, Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam
“A lavish and expert survey of Canadian artists under the spell of French
Impressionism. It will be essential reading for anyone interested in the first wave
of International modern art”- DR. CHARLES F. STUCKEY, former Curator, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
“A.K. Prakash’s passion and commitment to the subject are legendary”
- DAVID THOMSON, Chairman, Thomson Reuters, Toronto
“Beauty and size aside, Impressionism in Canada: A Journey of Rediscovery
by A.K. Prakash is an astonishingly comprehensive look at Impressionism, from
its early origins in France to its influence on the Group of Seven”- NATIONAL GALLERY OF CANADA MAGAZINE, April, 2015
“One of the most appetitive and knowledgeable collectors of what one auction
house used to call “important Canadian art” in the country. His is a connoisseurship
cultivated over more than three decades, exercised with considerable discretion,
not to mention resourcefulness and resources........even acolytes and aficionados
are likely to be amazed by the ambition and heft of his latest project. It’s
an 800-or-so-page, fully illustrated hardcover book, weighing almost five kilograms,
called Impressionism in Canada: A Journey of Rediscovery – nothing less
than Prakash’s heroic attempt to fully weave Canada’s contributions into the great
narrative of Impressionism”- GLOBE AND MAIL, December 5, 2014
