Absolutely stellar, including jaw-dropping bibliographies ... a lay-person’s introduction to early-modern art, sculpture, and architecture, primarily Italian and North European (Dutch, Flemish, German, and French) ... divided into five parts: The Context; The Artist; The Object; The Message; and The Viewer, the Critic, and the Historian ... simply perfect ...

[Castles · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great book with tons of information and studies, decided to 28 articles which are light-academic with a conclusion and a vast bibliography at the end of them.

While I admit I skipped one article, in the most part the book was very interesting and full of ways to expand your knowledge in this beautiful field of study.
