Summary: excellent photo prints,very well organized,insightful views
Review: The author organizes his thoughts of the Venetian mosaics on a room by room basis. Insightful comparisons are made with other eras of mosaic cultures. An excellent book for students of mosaic art who want to study this particular, worthy genre. Perhaps the book's strongest appeal is the choice of color plates (photographs) the author chose to include in this book. All color plates are reproduced in a stunning high qualty for the price you pay. The number of color plates, however, are somewhat limited and leave you hungry for more. Perhaps that's caused by the subject matter. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
