The Rape of Europa is one of Titians great masterpieces; a work charged with eroticism and classical mystique behind which lies a tale as compelling as the painting itself. Here Charles FitzRoy weaves a unique account of its history and the paintings movement following the rise and fall of the countries in which it has been housed. The story ranges from its place at the court of King Philip II of Spain; through French revolution and English intrigue; to its final move to America; engineered by the brilliant but devious art historian Bernard Berenson. This is the tale of how Titians masterpiece has captivated kings; nobles; artists; and lovers alike for over four centuries since its conception and continues to do so today.

I wish the book was a little larger to facilitate larger print; but thats nitpicking.I wish I had this book when I was a teenage learning to play guitar back in high school.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. AdequateBy Npoet9This has good songs in it; but it is not easy to use when learning / playing the songs. The binding is for reading and not for use. Its small and not a 8 x 11 format that works best for music.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.
