"A wonderful contribution to the field of art history, bringing to light biographical details of an important twentieth-century American artist who is not well known today."-- Klare Scarborough , Director and Chief Curator, La Salle University Art Museum, Philadelphia "Adams' compelling monograph reveals why expanded critical thinking is merited for lesser known American masters such as Dehn. Sensing salutary signals from Dehn's illustrious career now lighting up the radar screen, we enjoy the contributions of a remarkable talent."-- Philip Eliasoph , PhD, Professor of Art History, Fairfield University "A spirited study of an under-appreciated American artist. Adams combs secondary and new sources to detail the role Dehn's parents, siblings, lovers, and many friends had on his lithography, especially its sensuous aspects. Adams also provides the most thorough analysis to date of Dehn's post-World War Two watercolors of subjects of Mexico, Haiti, India, Afghanistan, West Africa, Ireland and Italy. Dehn's intense relationship with his wife and travel partner, Virginia Dehn, is riveting."-- Richard Cox , Professor Emeritus of Early Modern Art History, Louisiana State University.
