FIRST EDITION, SOFTCOVER. VERY GOOD CONDITION. slight bumping to top of outer cover. THIS IS A NEW TYPE OF GUIDE TO THE VAST COLLECTION OF THE LOUVRE AND AIMED TO MAKE THE VISITOR'S VISIT TO THIS COLLECTION EASIER BY WAY OF THE BOOK'S LAYOUT AND WHAT IT CONCENTRATES ON. Written in English, it describes over 600 paintings presented in chronological order or grouped by these to help visitors find their way through the maze of European painting. A different approach, enabling readers to acquire a basic understanding of painting and encouraging them to visit the Louvre again and again. It is intended to help visitors find their way through the maze of European paintings in the Louvre adopting an original format, which consists in arranging and commenting on the work around varied themes ( these may include, for example, a particular country and period: French painters 1620-1650; an iconographical subject; the Crucifixion, the story of Saint John the Baptist; or simply an interpretation, or a particular school: while providing brief commentaries on some of the great masters whose work is well represented in the Louvre collections(Leonardo,Raphael, Poussin etc). It starts in the 13th and 14th centuries and carries right through to the 19th century. Very good quality paper and printing of the paintings. preface by Pierre Rosenberg Member of the Academie Francaise
