Originally published in 1889, this is a timeless book explaining the secrets of distinguishing good art from bad in matter-of-fact, friendly, easy-to-read language, using for the most part layman’s terms, so that anyone, whatever their level of knowledge about art, will find it gratifying to read.
And to the original hardcover book, this eBook version has added forty illustrations of paintings mentioned by the author as examples in the book. Some of the forty are examples of good paintings, some of them examples of bad paintings, but, regardless, to actually look at what the author is describing in a given passage is immensely helpful.
