Jeanette Hanisee Gabriel’s new micromosaic book is truly indispensable for every serious micro mosaic collector therefore, I would like you to let you know. The author has brought together a treasure trove of micromosaics contributed by an international group of private collectors. This scholarly and beautiful art book is illustrated with over two hundred and fifty large, high-resolution color photos of micromosaics, most of them never before published: tables, pictures, miniature plaques, boxes and jewelry. The range of examples from jewelery to pictures to extravagant tabletops will excite every level of collector. In addition, Sotheby’s has generously allowed the author to reprint several essays she wrote for their most important micromosaic sales, including a table which set a world auction record in 2011, selling for almost two million dollars.
Ha, Marga, this must be a delight to go through all pages of this book!
Reference books are a must have, all infos aren't on Internet...
