How well do you truly know the great masterpieces of fine art? There's great fun in this search-and-find puzzle introduction to some of the world's greatest artists and their art found in museums worldwide.
Paul Cézanne, often called "the Father of Modern Art," believed that all things evolved from the basic shapes of a sphere, a cone, a cylinder, or a cube. He painted five different versions of "The Cardplayers," a group of peasants playing cards. Can you spot the differences between two of them? Two versions of paintings by some of the world's greatest artists appear side by side. Look closely—can you tell which is a true reproduction and which isn't? With each of these 25 puzzles, you'll scrutinize the works of Renoir, van Gogh, Manet, and other great artists. When you compare accurate reproductions with clever counterfeits, you'll pick out dozens of subtle—and sometimes funny!—giveaways. You'll also uncover fun facts about the artists and paintings, from Seurat's The Circus to David's The Emperor Napoleon in His Study at the Tuileries. Includes solutions.
Classic paintings include Arcimboldo's Summer, Pieter Bruegel the Elder's Children’s Games, Mary Cassatt's Tea, van Gogh's Starry Night, Hogarth's The Graham Children, Monet's Terrace at Sainte-Adresse, Prendergast's Central Park, Remington's A Cavalryman's Breakfast on the Plains, Sheeler's Skyscrapers, Vermeer's The Milkmaid, and others. Pairs of paintings, placed side by side, have anywhere from 9 to 13 changes made to the original paintings. The original work is always on the left, while the page with the differences is on the right. This is a great educational and introductory tool to the world of art history for kids ages 8 to 14. An excellent way to develop concentration and sharpen observation skills and visual perception in the classroom or homeschool curriculum. At the back of the book is an alphabetical index of the painters and their painters, as well as the solutions. Check out the Spot the Differences Book series 1-4: Art Masterpiece Mysteries, each with 25 DIFFERENT paintings to investigate. A wonderful gift for boys, girls, and even seniors for birthdays, holidays, and more!
