Description: "Although his art took form in many mediums, this book is the first to focus comprehensively upon Walter Anderson's murals."--BOOK JACKET.

"The WPA murals (Ocean Springs: Past and Present), painted for the auditorium of the Ocean Springs Public School, were government commissions and are the work of an emerging artist. The expansive murals in the Community Center reveal a mature artist sharing his vision of the Gulf Coast's history and environment with a public audience.

The Shearwater Cottage murals, seen in their entirety only after his death, manifest a private, personal epiphany in the light of Anderson's immediate surroundings."--BOOK JACKET.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 115-116).
