Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Very clever and great bios of other artists submitted by jgetty on July 9, 2015, 5:51pm I really enjoyed this book and did not realize that other artists had created Mona Lisas in their artistic styles. This book is a great way of summarizing other artist's styles as you watch the Mona Lisa change to emphasize each artist's unique way of art. I turned each page eagerly and enjoyed reading the words about each artist also. Check it out, very interesting.
It I should clever!

So much more than a Youth book. The art is fantastic and the artist/author tells his daughter a story than encompasses art from DaVinci to today. Very, very good.
Highly recommended.
