Features: It is truly challenging for an editor to integrate introductions to the arts of two countries into a single book. The artistic brilliance of both countries is no less than that of France, making the selection process even more difficult. There are so many exquisite museums to introduce and so many artworks to appreciate, but this book will not disappoint you. The elegant atmosphere and noble ambiance will leave you longing to stay, making it a worthwhile journey. The book is printed on copperplate paper with color illustrations, featuring 242 color plates—stunningly beautiful! The chapters are organized by geographical regions to consider the convenience of visitors; the focus on art satisfies the needs of most readers. The museum visit guide, including maps, facilities, transportation, and opening hours, is comprehensive; the historical background, architectural styles, and famous collections of each museum are also introduced in detail.
