Robert E. Lougheed championed realism at a time when mainstream American art had lapsed increasingly into abstraction and his support of the National Academy of Western art was an effort to promote excellence in representation artistic approaches. Herein lies the first expose visually chronicling the life's work of Lougheed, featuring 98 color reproductions of some of his finest works. The text is based on extensive interviews and conversations along with his personal records, letters, notes, and memoirs.
