Review

"Using colloquial language...the artworks dish on their histories, artists’ techniques (defining technical terms), and more. Blake’s quirky drawings embellish the text... Helpful guidance before a museum visit.—Kirkus Reviews

Alice Harman has written frisky, idiomatic entries to make it seem that the artworks are speaking for themselves... This is an appealing book, especially given Quentin Blake’s delightful drawings... 'Mona Lisa and the Others' [has] a lot to offer, with its array of paintings and sculptures beyond the Italian celebrity with the enigmatic smile.—The Wall Street Journal

About the Author

Alice Harman has written more than forty books for children, including the highly acclaimed Modern Art Explorer, and developed the award-winning Why is Art Full of Naked People?

Sir Quentin Blake is an internationally celebrated illustrator, known for his collaborations with authors such as Roald Dahl, Russell Hoban, John Yeoman, David Walliams, and Joan Aiken. A winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal and the Hans Christian Andersen Award, he received a knighthood in 2013 and was awarded France’s Legion d’Honneur in 2014.
