{"product_id":"100-details-9780674638631","title":"100 Details","description":"\u003cp\u003e100 Details offers Kenneth Clarks personal choice of details of paintings in the National Gallery  London  and his responses to them. Clark chooses the pictures he likes best  hoping that we will come to like them too. The result is like taking a stroll through a glorious art collection with a critic of astounding eye and intellect at our side.  First published in 1938  the book is arranged in a series of facing page spreads  now reproduced in full color  enabling us to discern analogies and contrasts between painting that are rarely seen together--a faun from Piero di Cosimo  a satyr from Rubens. The running commentaries are Kenneth Clark at his best. They range from a few lines to an entire history of still life between Giotto and Picasso  all conveyed in easy style.  Clark insists that there are countless ways of enjoying paintings  provided we stop  look  and think. He has picked the ones to stop at: the detail makes us look. And his comments  wide in scope and catholic in approach  suggest lines of thought so diverse that it is inconceivable that none will strike a chord with the reader.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45789853679669,"sku":"ByrdShop_0674638638","price":21.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780674638631.jpg?v=1784700831","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/100-details-9780674638631","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
