Every picture is in color and many have a few words about the painter and the work of art. Covers both the "Spanish Collection" and the "Foreign Collections". I was particularly interested in the works of Bosch in the "Early Netherlandish and Flemish Painting" collection. The reader learns about the the history of the times as well as the things to notice in the paintings. The book is too heavy to carry while traveling, but it's just right for preparing to visit the Prado which is what I'm doing. I have the edition from Scala Publications Limited, reprinted in 1998. Every page is European art lover's delight.
