Book Description
Gleaned from the walls of the National Gallery in London, this collection of thirty paintings features architectural subjects recorded on canvas by master artists through the centuries, including Brueghel, Canaletto, Monet, and Vermeer. Images are shown
in close-up detail, affording readers an unusually intimate look at each masterpiece. Accompanying the art are relevant literary passages drawn from the prose, poetry, letters, and diaries of writers spanning the past four centuries.
