Description
"His novel, The Art Thief, was a bestseller in five countries and is translated into 17 languages. His The Art of Forgery, Stealing the Mystic Lamb and Slovenology were international bestsellers. His book Collector of Lives: Giorgio Vasari and the Invention of Art was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Charney is now a professor at University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, where Charney has lived for many years"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
Interested in art but feel under-informed? Charney avoids the common approach of throwing hundreds of images at a reader and expecting them to learn from and memorize them all. Instead, he guides readers through a select series of masterpieces of Western art. Each chapter is linked to one notable masterpiece, with references to others. Readers can use this as a lens to understand the thousands of other, related objects that they might encounter in the future. -- adapted from jacket
