Book Description

The book should appeal to a wide range of readers, both as a splendid sample of the Metropolitan's paintings collections and a stirring reminder of great achievements in art across a span of nearly seven centuries.

Here, each one reproduced in full color, are a hundred of the Museum's finest paintings, carefully chosen to offer a broad account of periods and styles. Eighty - five of the works are from European schools—Italian, Flemish, Dutch, German, Spanish, British - ranging in time from an Epiphany by Giotto to Picasso's portrait of Gertrude Stein.
