“Above all, I wanted to be true and precise. To me, a landscape does not exist as a landscape, because it’s appearance changes with every moment; it lives by its surroundings, the air and the light, which never stop changing… You have to know how to capture the moment of the landscape at the correct instant, because that moment will never return, and you always ask yourself if them impression you’ve gotten is the true one.”

[Gianmarco Caruso]

This is the second art book I have read. As a rather voracious reader, I must say that the layout and the quality of the book truly impressed me.
An acquaintance of mine had purchased a similar book on Monet, but the difference in quality is immediately apparent. I recommend it because it delivers the right amount of information without overloading the reader and the illustrations are stunning.
