Secret Lives of Great Artists: What Your Teachers Never Told You about Master Painters and Sculptors by Elizabeth Lunday
5.0
I'm afterall a sucker for fun facts and I started physically reading this book last year and due to the nature of this book picked it up randomly now and then .
I knew this was going to be a favourite and I'd be coming back to it just for fun even after completing it.. so I took my sweet time.
But this year I found an audiobook and thought you know what.. let's just read it all..
And I'm not surprised to say I quite enjoyed it.
It's newspaper format only played into it's content. It was scandalous but also informative. The illustrations has this old inkwork feel to them. It lays right in between a magazine and an art textbook.
My only gripe would be that you could put into pictures of the artworks to have a context to the artists' work because not everyone picks these kinda books knowing everyone of them.
And I will be picking this up again now and again to read a specific artist.
