This completely reconceived and rewritten guide to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art's encyclopedic holdings-the first new edition of the
guidebook in nearly thirty years-provides the ideal introduction to
almost 600 essential masterpieces from one of the world's most
popular and beloved art collections. It features a compelling and
accessible design, beautiful color reproductions, and up-to-date
descriptions written by the Museum's own experts. More than a
simple souvenir book, The Metropolitan Museum of Art Guide provides
a comprehensive view of art history spanning five millennia and the
entire globe, beginning with the Ancient World and ending in
contemporary times. It includes media as varied as painting,
photography, costume, sculpture, decorative arts, musical
instruments, arms and armor, works on paper, and many more.
Presenting works ranging from the ancient Egyptian Temple of Dendur
to Canova's Perseus with the Head of Medusa to Sargent's Madame X,
this is an indispensable volume for lovers of art and art history,
and for anyone who has ever dreamed of lingering over the most
iconic works in the Metropolitan's unparalleled collection. Now
available as an eBook! The guide is now available to read on your
tablet, mobile phone or personal computer. The Metropolitan Museum
of Art Guide eBook provides the same features as the printed
version along with digital enhancements such as a linked table of
contents for easy navigation, a double-click to zoom on works of
art, and additional views of artworks. Like the print version, this
eBook features a compelling and accessible design, beautiful
photography, and up-to-date descriptions written by the Museum's
own experts. The eBook is now available on Amazon Kindle, Apple
iBooks and Google Play.
