Bad
The text (which is a classic in the public domain) appears to have been modified extensively for no apparent reason, and without any notice from the publisher. Very bad practice.The colours are also badly reproduced, making Titian's vibrant paintings look stale and yellow (by comparison with the one's I have seen in person, and with other photos of the paintings that can be found online).I took a risk with this book - unknown publisher, no reviews - and it did not pay off.
