Perspective (Eyewitness Art)

Part of the "Eyewitness Art" series, which explores in depth the personality behind the work of artists and movements, this book reveals the hidden science of art from the earliest perspective experiments to the revolutionary viewpoints of the Cubists, and beyond. Every page is packed with artefacts and memorabilia concerning the art movement - sketchbooks, momentoes, palettes and artist's paraphernalia - all presented in a unique "private album". Specially taken photographs of the works of art, with many close-up details provide true-to-life reproduction. The series is created and compiled with the assistance of the leading museums, galleries, art historians and technical experts.
