An artist who can be claimed by both Canada and the U.S., Woldemar Neufeld was concerned with documenting landscapes and cityscapes, showing ordinary places and things in a way that would
appeal to the proverbial "person on the street." Presenting a huge selection of Neufeld's paintings (both oils and watercolors), drawings, and block prints, this beautifully produced book
documents his stylistic evolution over a career that lasted more than seven decades. Of particular interest is the frequent appearance of bridges in the artist's works (whether they were the
subject or just an element of a larger scene), reflecting Newfeld's belief that every bridge was unique and had its own story to tell. Annotation 穢2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
