Worth it for the price,

This review is from: Raphael (Paperback)
Considering that my interest is more in the images than in the text, the book is pretty generous in images, and there are many close-ups.
The color accuracy and vibrancy are not always the best, but for the price, as an introduction to this artist, it looks ok.

Lavishly illustrated book about the life and work of one of the most influential of all artists,
By Tanis "Tanis Yvonne Somerville" (Seahurst, Washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Raphael (Paperback)
This is a delightful book of "Raphael's" art, sensuality and sensuousness.
One of the artists greatest achievements was to create and perfect artistic formulae of astonishing durability. The book discusses these, both because they are, in themselves, a reflection of his genius and because, unexplained, they can be an impediment to our recognition of his originality. Another feature of the book is the extensive consideration of Raphael's little known architectural achievements. He was, I feel, the greatest of all Renaissance artists..... |
