Synopsis :

Discover the love affairs that inspired art's greatest masterpieces.

Whether in the throes of passion, enduring the pain of unrequited love, or basking in the joy of a wonderfully supportive friendship, What Art Can Tell Us About Love explores the myriad ways love has influenced artists, shaped the work they created, and altered the course of art history.

Beautifully illustrated with full-colour photographs of more than 70 artworks, this guide looks at how artists have painted, sketched and modelled their lovers - and how the theme of love has found its way into a broad range of works, from landscapes to still-life and self-portraits.

Artists include: Caravaggio, Georgia O'Keeffe, Sarah Bernhardt, Picasso, Rembrandt, Frida Kahlo, Tamara de Lempicka, Clifford Prince-King, Chagall, Lotte Laserstein and Niki de Saint Phalle.
