Editorial Review

“This book presents eighteen paintings illustrating the volume’s theme of action in art. Works include Lichtenstein’s Blam, Rivera’s The Conquest of Mexico, and Bruegel’s Children’s Games. Each piece is described through short captions that together form a rhymed text: ‘Ringmasters / Cannon Blasters…Big Top Swingers / Stone Slingers.’ Notes about the paintings are appended.”
