Title: watch out!
Review: I was looking for a book with lots of illustrations to work through how actually to understand the perspective in specific paintings--Donald Weismann's wonderful THE VISUAL ARTS AS HUMAN EXPERIENCE gives a good start, and the National Gallery of Art book on Vermeer gives some further clues, but somehow when I'm on my own I just can't figure out the vanishing and distance points, etc. So this book looked perfect from its description. But the reason I'm dissing it is not the content (though it clearly isn't detailed in the way I was looking for). I just glanced through it, but am returning it right away without reading it because it's such a ripoff. A small 200 page paperback, on crummy paper, with maybe 30 black and white illustrations, for $35.00!!! They should be ashamed of themselves.
Is the review positive or negative?
