Please, take a closer look at this book. If you cannot visit Florence or London, at least take a look. This is one of the most fascinating painters of all time. How modern does his work seem! How envious it should make modernists! This is painting just before academicalism-through the invention of perspective- took place. Hockney avant la lettre and he did not even know it. The book is so very well made and such a pleasure to look at. It simply makes one happy. Next, you will find yourself searching for the real thing- because that is even better. L.
