"Introducing the first collection of art books with detachable prints to decorate your walls. Everything you need to create your own private gallery at home! Each book contains a curated selection of twenty-one high-quality reproductions that can be easily removed from the book, framed in a standard-size frame, and displayed in the home.

Graphic, colorful, or abstract; paintings, engravings, or drawings-each work of art is explained on the back of the print. Interesting details about the style of painting, the particular work of art, and biographical information about the artist are accompanied by a ""frameable fact"" that helps you understand the context of that particular work in the history of art. In addition, suggestions for where you can go to see additional examples of the artists' works allow the reader to expand their experience and learning. A veritable cabinet of curiosities from the natural world include beautiful and remarkable animal drawings, from flamingos and parrots, to giraffes and crabs. Artists include John James Audubon, Charles-Alexandre Lesueur, Nicolas Huet, and Georges Cuvier."
