Book Reviews of Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Book Review: Muddy and tiny reproductions ruin this book
Summary: 2 Stars
I was very annoyed when I got this book and after looking through it, see that the images are about greeting card sized, and poorly reproduced. I have better Rossetti work as desktop wallpaper, honestly. This book also is very repetitive. Plug the name 'Rossetti' into Google or any search engine of your choice. Hm? You see what I mean. It's the same girl over and over and over and-
I should be more careful with Pre-Raphaelites. They tended to depict their girlfriends to the exclusion of everything else. This book, sadly is mostly images of the same woman/girl/guy? to the point it gets boring. And for what it's worth, I love the samples of Rossetti's work I have from other books.
Just be warned not to expect one of those nice coffee table books loaded with huge full page images. This sure isn't it. I'm not sure it's even a good representation of Rossetti's works. I like what I have for wallpaper, but those paintings weren't included here.
