I have been collecting these "Life and Works" series for some time, mainly via them showing up in local charity shops. The most recent, and first of 2020 I have read, is about Bosch. Garden of Earthly Delights is one of my favourite works of art, but I have never really looked at much past that with Bosch....and it seems there isn't much to look at! The book itself is full, as all the series are, of great images of his works and details on his paintings. The one little problem with this book, that the others in the series don't have, is that there is so little known about Bosch's life that there is very very little in the way of biography.
If you haven't ventured into this series already, they are always worth keeping an eye out for!
