Treasures of 19th and 20th Century Painting: The Art Institute of Chicago

The reproductions in this book are quite small,but very high quailty.As long as you have good eyes,you should be able to allreciate the artwork to full extent.

The Tiny Folio series is simply wonderful! As a frequent traveler who loves to discuss (share) art, I make it a habit to bring these miniature art books with me whenever I can. This version showcases the Art Institute's well known pieces. Included are works from John Singer Sargent, Mary Cassat, Toulouse-Latrec, Gauguin, Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir, Pissarro, Degas, and Suerat (A Sunday on La Grande Jatte). Okay, that's a long list, but it's just a sample of what's inside! The book offers a delightful mix of styles, concluding with Warhol, Mondrian, Lichtenstein and Pollock. The pictures are, of course, quite small, but the book is too! That's what makes it so lovely! It can go anywhere. And never have I seen a better representation of such a variety of artists at such an inexpensive price. (And, this is a book you can let the smallest toddler look at! It's just right for little hands!)
