5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction, May 17, 2001
This is a great introduction to Magritte's work. It's well organized, give's various quotes from Magritte himself and has serveral sidebars of information realted to Magritte's life and work. It is a quick read, and is not bogged down with a lot "artsy", hard to understand terminology (Any art teminology that IS included is clearly defined in common terms). The book is jammed full of Magritte's paintings, and they are all full color (which is not always the case with art books). To sum up, this is a great springboard into the work of Magritte.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is essential!, August 20, 2000
A Kid's Review
What a wonderful little book. Clearly written with the appropriate amount of biography and historical reference. Excellent plates of many of Magritte's important works that represent his career from start to finish. In less than 30 minutes, your appreciation and understanding of Magritte will blossom! I recommend this book to anyone who loves modern art. I recommend this book to all who think they don't like modern art. I recommend this book for everyone!

4.0 out of 5 stars Magritte for Beginners, March 15, 2007
This little book is cute and simply explains who he is and some of his artwork. Not a bad little book, but not really very intellectually stimulating.
