A review by marginaliant
Medieval Art by Veronica Sekules

2.0

Ehh. I didn't really like this book. Certainly not the worst book I've read about Medieval Art, but still pretty bad. The writing was decent if bland and there were some pieces I hadn't seen before, but the organization was horrible. It went by topic without considering dates so all the information was jumbled and confused (especially when the pieces of later Medieval art contradicted the themes of early Medieval art.) And there were a few occasions when they show a close-up of a work of art next to the whole piece and the close-up is colored wrong and is a mirror image... it's just not well put together. So, you could do worse, but I'd skip it.
