Reviews

[APB · Rating 3 out of 5]

Picked up the book from a free book warehouse. The copy has been withdrawn from a public school library. The author's writing is, at times, stilted. Some vignettes about the featured artworks end on a meandering note. Then again, it is an art history book from the 1960's (?). It served as good weekend reading.
