Gr 7 Up—Fact-laden volumes include excellent reproductions; works by contemporaries and modern-day artists inspired by these masters are displayed for comparison, and explanations of how these artists impacted future generations and were themselves influenced are clear. "Art" sidebars invite readers to examine works closely. Each title sets artists and works in a historical, social, and artistic context. Owing to the books' apparent British authorship, Cezanne refers to a sale price in dollars on one page, pounds, elsewhere.
VERDICT Buy Bruegel if needed; the others are supplemental.
