This large-format art book, published in 1979 by Crown Publishers, Inc. (an Artabras Book), features an introduction and detailed commentaries by Michel Laclotte, who served as the Chief Curator of the Department of Painting at the Louvre. The volume showcases fifty significant works from the museum's collection—including iconic pieces like Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa—presented in a "large poster size" suitable for framing. The item is in good vintage condition, showing some light shelf wear and minor age-related toning to the cover edges, though the interior color plates remain vibrant and well-preserved. Dimensions: 38cm x 30cm
