Art, essential reading?


Now I am constantly discussing Art with experts which is unnerving because “like everyone else I know nothing of Art”. I suffer from grumpy old male syndrome and “can’t stand intolerance of any kind”!!

These are two books I have acquired. The one on the left send to me by a grateful publisher who needed a picture and the other I bought 10 years ago as I thought it might throw some light on the environment in which my Grandfather started his painting career.

    Might one inquire as to which picture you sent to the publisher? Does this mean I have to buy the book ? (I’m keen to know more about the topic)

    Hi Chris, The picture was a Michelangelo! The books are well worth reading, I’ll email.
