Description: "Although a legitimate painter in his own right, Tomás Santa Rosa is best known as one of the most significant pioneers in Brazilian 20th-century set and costume design, and one of the finest book illustrators and cover designers. This long overdue monograph does justice to his numerous contributions in these fields and also as a painter. Good variety of color and b/w reproductions and period photographs. Lucid text describes his struggles and accomplishments"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
