Publisher's Synopsis

This is a new edition of a reference book about the European paintings collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. This new edition of the summary catalogue is in one volume and each picture is reproduced, with its description, on a two-page spread. Artists are listed by school, and the paintings are arranged chronologically within that designation.
