A fascinating tour of some of the most amazing museums around the world
From Bilbao to Beijing, from New York to the Netherlands, explore the wonders of 13 extraordinary museums in this “great big” oversized book for readers 8 to 108. Whether you’re visiting Mexico City’s Frida Kahlo Museum, Paris’s treasured Louvre, or New York City’s American Museum of Natural History, you’ll be accompanied by the very best guides: curators, architects, landscape designers, artists . . . but also some more unexpected guests, like the beloved cats of St. Petersburg’s Hermitage, or the guardian of Rome’s Vatican Museums who carries hundreds of keys while making his rounds through the Sistine Chapel and beyond!
Each of the 13 museums is splashed across two colorful double-page spreads: the first is a vivacious illustration of the museum's architecture by the French artist Benjamin Chaud, bursting with quirky details and inside jokes. A second spread gives life to each museum with abundant, charming illustrations and fascinating, fact-filled captions of history, mystery, and more. This beautiful book by French author Éva Bensard bubbles over with world-renowned masterpieces; a glimpse into the lives and works of dozens of artists, scientists, and other luminaries; intriguing portraits of expert employees; and insider tips for visitors . . . museums have never seemed so vibrant and exciting.
