Description: Flint, Ralph. Albert Sterner: His Life and His Art. New York: Payson & Clarke LTD., 1927, first edition. Presentation copy inscribed and dated by Sterner on the half-title page, 4to; 37 pp. Inscription reads: To Walter Solinger - most Sincerely - Albert Sterner - Feb '37. 1/4 linen with salmon boards, light-moderately soiled and chipped at tips, frontispiece artist portrait, illustrated with 64 plates. Good. "Last week the same Albert Sterner, now 74, held an exhibition of 18 paintings and 32 prints, drawings and monotypes at Manhattan’s Kleemann Galleries. The art world paid respectful attention, for Artist Sterner, who has been called the “ablest figure painter in America,” is at least one of the ablest and most forceful draftsmen of the nude in the U. S. At last week’s exhibition his portrait heads, still lifes and landscapes were unexceptionable, but several of his nudes showed that his rapid, unerring draftsmanship has not faded with the years."
