Synopsis
Originally published in 1938 when Kenneth Clark was director of the National Gallery, London, this book presents Clark's favorite details from paintings in the museum's collection. Newly updated and handsomely illustrated, this landmark book juxtaposes pairs of details rarely viewed together--such as cupids from Velázquez's Rokeby Venus and Correggio's The School of Love --to illuminate fascinating analogies and contrasts between paintings and artists. Clark's erudite but accessible responses to these works are broad in scope and approach, and range from a few lines to an entire history of the still life. Featuring all new color reproductions, One Hundred Details serves as an introduction to art history and offers a unique and intimate look at these paintings through the discerning eye of a world-renowned art historian and director.

- d***c (732)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat seller, I received the item right away - I appreciate the accurate condition rating and identification of it as a former library book. I'm getting to really appreciate these x-library books because I can cut off the plastic and remove the stickers (a little challenging sometimes, I use lighter fluid) and then I end up with a really pristine copy. Love it!
- 1***1 (20)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseIt's on me for not reading the description of this being an ex-library copy. I was expecting it to be, but that's completely my fault. The product is exactly as described, in good condition and of good quality. Shipping was fast. Appearance good, no pages ripped and cover is not bent. It was sent in a bag instead of a box, though, which could have led to damage in shipping. Overall I'm happy and would buy from this seller again.El lado oscuro (Spanish Edition) (#156832766019)
- s***8 (127)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis was an ex-library book, as had been mentioned in the listing. Just a few stickers here and there; nothing that would make it hard to read this graphic novel. It was shipped fairly quickly! Although the packaging could have been better, it managed to survive intact, so I'm happy! Condition is pretty good and nothing's missing. All in all, an excellent transaction and I'd buy from the seller again!
- h***h (244)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was noted as in a very good condition. When I received it, it had several pages of underlining. I contacted the seller and send them copies of the pages. They apologized for their oversight and rectified the issue. I appreciate the prompt communication and rectification of the issue. thanks.The Bogleheads' Guide to the Three-Fund Portfolio: How a Simple Portfolio of... (#156879314108)
