Customer Reviews

VERY SMALL BOOK but very awesome!

First of all make sure that you realize this book is about 4.5" X 4" it is absolutely tiny. I did not realize that when I bought it I sort of rushed into it without reading like an idiot. Having said that, the illustrations are absolutely wonderful and it has loads of classics. A great little book!

Beautiful book!

This book is such a beautiful book with the most gorgeous art work! If you love art and even if you do not you will enjoy it. I can't wait to display this book in our home for everyone to enjoy and inspire.

Great Gift

I bought this book as a retirement gift for a friend. I am not an art expert by any means, but before I bought this book, I looked through numerous other art books and thought that the colors were muddy and unattactive in many of them and there were relativley few reproductions that I would want to look at. This book has a large selection of excellent color prints of wellknown impressionists' works. Much better quality then others I have looked at. A good buy for the money.

This Book Is Beloved By Two Generations in My Family

I first saw this book at my grandmother's. She would put it on a console table which greeted people entering the living room from the foyer. She always had the book open to a different painting--you never knew which one it would be. I became so interested, and learned so much from her by asking about the paintings, that eventually, as an adult, I knew I had to have one too. So I bought one for myself and have used it to teach my 6yr. old about Impressionism. She doesn't really understand, but she likes the little girls (Renoir, Cassat) :) -Beryl
