Get to know this great art book (and the whole series)! June 6, 2000
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
The books in this series are the best books I've seen to introduce children to great artists. Getting to Know Great Artists books bring to life the person behind the painting with fun cartoons about his life. Why did Rembrandt start painting? What's so great about his paintings? This book makes kids care about the man and his art. Your kids will wind up knowing more about Rembrandt than most adults ever will! The combination of cartoons with color photographs of the artist's paintings makes the book lively to look at. The text is interesting and easy to read. The artist's greatest works are shown within the context they were made: what was going on in the artist's life, how the work was received by society at the time. I recommend this whole series of Getting to Know Great Artists very highly.
