Summary:

"A biography of Mary Pratt written by art historian Anne Koval. Koval began the book in close consultation with Pratt before her death and continued afterwards working with the Pratt family. The book is informed by extensive interviews with the artist, and her family, friends, and colleagues and by unprecedented access to Pratt’s archival holdings at Mount Allison University. This in-depth study of Pratt’s life and work explores the complex issues of gender, feminism, and realism in Canadian art, resulting in a richly layered biography of an artist who redefined the visual culture of her period and whose art and life intersect in varied and surprising ways. The book will be illustrated with around 90 images, including both Pratt's art and archival photographs."-- Provided by publisher.
