Artists are grouped into periods without detailed personal aspects. NO COLOR PHOTOS !! All are small images in black and white. Not recommended for mature readers.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy cherryfansintersting book8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Where are the images?By Elaine DeyoI was disappointed to find out that this "free" version does not contain any images. I wouldnt have minded that they would have been in black and white. but there are none at all. I think Ill enjoy though. the details and history of the French Impressionists in the book.
