Artworks are introduced in a well organized manner by both theme/style and time period. Facts about the historical background and artists are cleverly introduced along side the relevant artworks. Prints are beautiful. It’s a very logical introduction to Dutch golden age arts. I only hope I could be at the special exhibition when it happened!

Any one who can paint cheese realistically is alright in my book. Though, due to the amount of dairy consumed by me in a year versus others, it might be a little too indulging of my gluttony. Framing it does make the subject in question a little harder to resist.
