Art in Detail by Susie Hodge
Great paintings cannot be fully understood in a single encounter. This book examines 100 iconic paintings from the Western canon and spotlights the finer points a quick glance will almost certainly fail to reveal. These include subtle internal details, such as hidden symbols and artistic tricks used by the painter to achieve particular effects.
