5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful book
Having been a student of Comini's at Southern Methodist University, I know too well her genius. This is a beatifully reproduced book with some very interesting insight. It includes a short written overview of Klimt, and an amazing 80 other images in color and black and white. I greatly recommend this book for any and all interested in reading the words of a great scholar...

1.0 out of 5 stars
Worst Klimt Book I Have Ever Purchased
If I could give it "zero" star rating, I would. Being an aficionado of Klimt, I may be as bold as to conclude that Comini's book is: a) expensive without offering any new angle/insight/pictures compared with the cheaper Taschen series; b) absent of any informative text (only a few pages in the form of a prologue); (c) colour-printing was very shoddily done...

It includes a short written overview of Klimt, and an amazing 80 other images in color and black and white.

This is the only book I had ever returned to Amazon...so save your time/postage and get instead books with really gorgeous and rare prints like Abrams' "Gustav Klimt" or Fischer's take on "Gustav Klimt and Emilie Floge". |
