Wayne Thiebaud 100


Book Description

"This book celebrates the 100th birthday of Wayne Thiebaud.

This book includes pieces drawn from both the holdings at The Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California, and from the collection of the Thiebaud family, many of which have never been published or shown publicly"--
