Another great book all art teachers should have is titled: "THE ANOTATED
MONA LISA." I can't recall the author and I don't have my copy handy, but
it is an enjoyable resource with crisp and often humorous, general
overviews of artists, art movements, and famous artworks.

Can anyone supply the author and publisher?
