4.5

Star rating out of 5:
4.5/5

Would I recommend the book:
If you're interested in a beautiful "coffee table book" or artist reference source, yes.

My favorite part was:
Learning about artists I didn't know about and facts about some of my favorite artists that I didn't already know



Do i think the book is well written? Why is or isn't it? Was engaging, delightful, or inspiring? Was it staid, boring, or contrived?

Yes and beautifully illustrated.

Was it what you expected it to be?
Yes

How I discovered the book: 

My hubby knows my interests and gave this to me as a Christmas or birthday gift a few years ago. I've been reading it bit by bit ever since. (it took awhile, it's kind of like a textbook!)


Format I read it in: physical book

It’s nonfiction. I don’t know how much I retained, but it was still so much better than any of the textbooks I am currently supposed to be reading, so I can’t say I don’t recommend, though there are some typos and punctuation errors that slipped through the cracks. It’s pretty, if nothing else.
