Sometimes the story hidden in a painting is more interesting than the image itself. And sometimes it literally turns what you see upside down. A portrait no longer seems like a portrait, but the meaning of existence is revealed in the landscape. Not only the content, but also the painting technique can be a surprise to the viewer.
The mysteries of the greatest works of art—from the frescoes of Pompeii to Picasso's painting—are explored in the book "The Great Mysteries of Painting." You'll learn what artists were thinking, what they hid from their contemporaries, and what has been virtually hidden from us by the veil of centuries.
