Introducing the first collection of art books with detachable prints
to decorate your walls. Everything you need to create your own private
gallery at home! Nightscapes that range from a fireworks display in Rome
by Jacob Philipp Hackert to the Louvre from across a Parisian bridge by
Maximilien Luce to a moonlit New York streetlamp by Georgia O'Keeffe.
Each book contains a curated selection of twenty-one high-quality
reproductions that can be easily removed from the book, framed in a
standard-size frame, and displayed in the home. Step-by-step tips for
grouping the works to create a harmonious gallery add an interior
designer's touch to the ensemble. Graphic, colorful, or abstract;
paintings, engravings, or drawings--each work of art is explained on the
back of the print. Interesting details about the style of painting, the
particular work of art, and biographical information about the artist
are accompanied by a frameable fact that helps you understand the
context of that particular work in the history of art. In addition,
suggestions for where you can go to see additional examples of the
artists' works allow the reader to expand his or her experience and
learning.
Artists include Edward Hopper, William Turner, Camille Pissarro, Paul
Klee, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Pierre Bonnard, Giorgio de
Chirico, Georgia O'Keeffe, René Magritte, and Wassily Kandinsky.
