Overview

"This next book in the ""Enjoying Great Art"" series shows great art from four centuries - all around the theme of music. See musicians and instruments alone and in groups, as the focus of a painting, and as a mere prop. Enjoy these full cover copies of great art and see the similarities and differences between each. Clearly three dozen paintings can only show the tip of a theme - but they should be enough to give adults and students of all ages a nice introduction to ""music in art."" Note: As in all of Catherine's other ""In Art"" books, these paintings have all been chosen to be family-friendly (though we can make no guarantees about other paintings by the same artists!)"

Author Information

"Catherine's appreciation for ""Great Art"" started slowly. Beginning with a love of all things Leonardo da Vinci, in recent years she branched out to Claude Monet, Winslow Homer, and Norman Rockwell. And there her love of art sat for many years. Only in the last few years has she come to recognize and enjoy the works of many other artists, and in the process has fallen in love with many of their paintings, both well-known and not so well-known. This series started simply: a few books to introduce children to art and artists they might not have known - all arranged along a single theme (first hats, then with animals, then bridges, and so it went). Before long she had multiplied her efforts and her books, all the while introducing not just her students, but also many adults to the vast array of artwork that so many of us sadly neglect."
