Fabulous book by erudite and eloquent artist- Betty Churcher recounts her personal exploration of growing up with and through art. This book will open every reader's eyes to a fresh way of viewing art. The author is modest about her own skills as an artist but both as a practitioner and as an administrator/curator she exhibits a keen understanding of some of the major artists of Western Europe and their works. Her writing allowed me to experience something of the deeper appreciation of art gained by those, like Ms. Churcher, who have made Art the central focus of their professional life. The author's biographical sketches are woven through her description of the works of Titian, Rembrandt, Courbet, Cézanne and others while touring the world's major galleries. I recommend this book to anyone who loves Art. James Pope aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"In this gorgeously illustrated book, join Betty Churcher on a personal tour of her most beloved works, including masterpieces by Rembrandt, Goya, Manet, Vel zquez, Courbet, Vermeer and Cezanne. A trained artist, Betty's sketches reveal the secrets within the artworks and the processes of their creation. With the gift for making art accessible that characterised her popular television series, she gently leads your eye to these paintings' intimate details, describing their kinship with other masterpieces and their place in the history of art. Betty Churcher's deeply held belief that art has the power to transport the viewer to another place and time is evident in this delightful book. Here, there is no doubting the magic of great art."
