Silent Poetry

Art is magic. It can take us to the places we dream of, and shape our minds in a way no other art form can. The artist has the power to capture a single moment and immortalize it for the rest of history. When we look at his work, we are transported back in time to see the world through his eyes. No textbook can describe Renaissance Europe quite as vividly as Bruegel can paint it.

The paintings that fill this book roam the timeline from Ancient China to the late 19th century. They are drawn from various artistic movements, cultures, and countries, and will take you and your young art-lovers on an adventure to far off times and places.

Open up this book and see the world suspended in time-frozen in the artist's eye-and you'll discover that art truly is MAGIC.
