The problem with acquiring these books when you go to museums is that you need them before you enter the museum, not after.
Essentially, a small souvenir book of the museum's entire art collection. Brief overview of the entire collection with small color and b/w photos. Artwork includes the Mona Lisa (Leonardo), Venus of Milo, The Ship of Fools (Bosch), Rembrandt's self portrait, Michelangelo's Dying Slave, the Code of Hammurabi, Holbein's Portrait of Erasmus, Cupid and Psyche (Canova), Liberty Guiding the People (Delacroix), Coronation of the Virgin (Fra Angelico), Giotto's predella of St Francis. One of the show more greatest museums in the world. show less
