More Than Words: Illustrated Letters From The Smithsonian's Archive of American Art

More Than Words: Illustrated Letters From The Smithsonian's Archive of American Art compiles a selection of individual items evolved from a series of exhibitions at the New York Research Center that explored the art of the illustrated letter. These illustrated letters are vital to scholars for the information they communicate about the lives of artists, but the public infrequently has an opportunity to see them. The book offers insights into the lives, attitudes, and personalities of letterwriters through their correspondences.
