Maine Moderns

Art in Seguinland, 1900-1940

In this beautifully illustrated book, Bischof and Danly explore Maine’s important place in the history of modern art. Between 1900 and 1940, a group of modernist artists gathered regularly on the coast of Maine in a region then known as Seguinland. The authors shed light on how the various artists’ experiences in the refreshing atmosphere on the Maine coast cemented their friendships, shaped their individual styles, and fostered their understanding of what it meant to be a modern artist
