Reviews
The book cover states that the book is lavishly illustrated; the cover is but not the book. It is not up to Yale standards.The photographs are small and blurry, often the colors are incorrect.Please wait for a good Catalogue Raisonne. As for the text, so many years of good research wasted. The text is ponderous, poorly written with endless sentences full of quotes and inserts.The author is critical , judgemental and constantly makes assumptions or gives personal and mostly unsubstanciated opinions. It is another book for Art History students (the author is an Art History teacher) not for lovers of paintings. I returned the book to Amazon.
