Art Lovers discussion

If you choose an art book that doesn't exactly fall under any of the listed topics, this thread is for any type of art book you choose to read and review for the month.

I am reading The Garnder Heist -- about the famous art theft.

That's great, Terri. I looked that book up and added it to my to-read list. Looks like it got great reviews! It will be neat to find out what you are learning and your review of the book. Keep us posted!

The whole Gardner theft is fascinating. What's even more fascinating is they've never been able to solve it.

It looks very interesting indeed. I've also added it to my list (not online), but I think I'll read Jonathan's The Man Who Made Vermeers first.

I just bought Jonathan's book. It does look good!

You guys will enjoy The Man Who Made Vermeers. I took a break from my thesis to read it last Christmas break. It's definitely good stuff (well researched & lively reading.)

Over on Constant Reader we had both an unofficial and an official discussion of The Man Who Made Vermeers. Here are links to them both.
