Review: Beautiful, informative, but too small to be a coffee table book - if you're looking to learn, the paintings are covered in detail and the images are beautiful. But the book needed to be about 3-4 inches taller so the text and images can be larger because as is you need a magnifying lens. I am very happy with the book
Review: A wonderful little book - Yes it is indeed a small book... that you can carry in your bag and take it with you everywhere, all are advantages! It is small, but it is loaded with great information!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful little book

Yes it is indeed a small book... that you can carry in your bag and take it with you everywhere, all are advantages! It is small, but it is loaded with great information!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous, informative (even about paintings you may think you know all there is to know)
*by C***R on June 8, 2016*

Having seen this book in a well known museum in Washington DC, I was drawn to the marvelous reproductions and information (background and foreground in a sense) about the paintings. It's like having an express tour focused on one painting, at your convenience. But the book was so heavy. How was I, should I, carry this (almost) 3 pound book with me all day. No. So given that, I took a picture of the cover and resolved to look into where I could find it later. When home once again. Yep, there on Amazon it was. If only the well known museum had free shipping, I'd have bought from them at retail--but they didn't, so neither did I. Once at home, I bought it and am delighted that I did. For people who need a book to read before sleep, but who eschew electronics--given the interference they can have upon your sleep--this is the read for you. Short, but long enough informational read--but not a full book. So you won't be up all night reading a "can't be put down" book. And no, I am NOT saying it will put you to sleep. But to say sweet dreams, is true. What better than art to dream on, with the addition of more knowledge than you started with? Having volunteered at a large museum in Chicago, this basically is like one of the "express" tours. So before bed, take a tour...and sleep well.
