About the author

Various

455k books1,338 followers
Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Está muy bien en cantidad de información pero creo que se excede en la informacion sobre los pintores holandeses y deja en segundo plano a Velázquez.

A lot of information for such a little book. Great overall history; in depth look at 32 artists with one large artwork each; small color plates with history. Good resource.

Se detienen en obras de 33 artistas y todos son hombres. La historiografía del arte ha recuperado a muchas artistas mujeres del barroco que incluso fueron valoradas en su época, este tipo de libros de arte que llegan a un público no especializado debería incluirlas, pues es necesario cambiar el discurso de que sólo hombres han sido grandes artistas en la historia del arte.
