#TBRtemptation post 1! 100 paintings throughout history are examined in-depth over 800 beautiful pages. Not only is technique and material looked at, but also the content and symbolism of the paintings--why the scene it is, what does X mean, why that pose, etc. Looks like the kind of book my art history profs should have chosen for their classes. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
