small little book w/ many pictures and info
This is a small book w/ a lot of info in it.
Pro: it is small and handy, has a lot of pictures an info. 5 works get described more in detail w/ some "cutouts", that are pictured again w/ a bigger format
con: It is very small, writing( what didn't bother me much) and pictures. The lines ( or boxes)from the 5 works that get described in detail,make it hard to look at the original artwork.I also felt like the author has some bias against the reformation, that happened in Germany at that time. This is mainly my first impression, haven't read the whole book yet. ... Read more
