A must-have for any art fanatic. You will lose yourself for hours...or days...in this phenomenal collection of great works of art. It's like an encyclopedia of art through the ages.

My first intro to the world of art. It encompasses much more than I expected. The descriptions of some of the master works left me thinking that ..........too much thinking when into analysis and not enough into enjoyment. However, it's my first glance. I could be wrong.
