someone explain to me the function of an art book where 90% of the art in the book was not put in color

Yes I am adding all my school readings to goodreads to bulk up my 2023 reading goal. What about it? This one’s a good overview of Romanticism- quite detailed without being too heavy on the philosophical/theoretical aspects of romanticism- explains them with clarity. Lots of images as well :)

Why publish a book (which is really informative and helpful) about Art but not print in colour?

need to get better at skim reading instead of becoming utterly engrossed in a 250 page book I only picked up for a single chapter.

A gift from the eternally lovely Ms. O'Neil...given to me just when I needed it. I'm putting it in my take-to-the-studio bag right this second!

Nice clarity in dealing with complex and often vague concepts.

Last chance to figure out the difference between Enlightenment Art & Romantic Art :S...
