{"product_id":"wisconsin-in-watercolor-joe-kapler-9780870208911","title":"Wisconsin in Watercolor: The Life and Legend of Folk Artist Paul Seifert","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1867, German immigrant Paul Seifert settled in the Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin and began capturing the distinctive farms and landscapes of his new home in vivid, detailed watercolors. Today, these paintings are coveted by American folk art collectors across the country, but Seifert's life remains shrouded in mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this first book written about Paul Seifert, author Joe Kapler examines the life of this enigmatic artist and provides context for his extraordinary art. The book features high-quality reproductions of twenty-two Seifert watercolors (more than half of which have never been published) and many close-ups of his characteristic details, from horses and hay wagons to dogs and dinner bells. Part art history treatment, part coffee table book, part research memoir, and part love letter to the Driftless Area, Wisconsin in Watercolor shines a long-awaited light on Seifert and the land he so carefully rendered over a hundred years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Kapler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0870208918\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780870208911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wisconsin Historical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 9.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Joe Kapler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47304781562111,"sku":"9780870208911","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ee8e311f-2afb-4b36-aa37-f87d6c82a0b4.jpg?v=1758829151","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wisconsin-in-watercolor-joe-kapler-9780870208911","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
