A fine little sampler of one of the world's premier collections, containing some particularly acute commentary by Ms. Langmuir. Coverage from Van Eyck to Van Gogh.
interesting match of writing and pictures. i liked the enlargement of sections of the pictures.
A nice selection of artwork, with information and history, from this world-class art museum in London.
This is a book for children to introduce them to the great paintings.
