Overview

A Bohemian Life is a fascinating blend of biography, early California social history, and the story of emergence of California Impressionist painting. Carefully researched, the book offers an intriguing account of Evelyn McCormick's life and times in San Francisco, Monterey and Paris in a beautiful art book format. Evelyn was an unusually independent young woman who followed her lover to Paris and Monet's Giverny in 1889. Painting was her passion as well as her livelihood, and she chose to pursue her talent over the traditional roles expected of a woman. Her exuberant spirit and lively personality make an absorbing and often surprising tale about the art world around the turn of the century in America and Paris. McCormick's art is a splendid revelation for the world of American Impressionism.
