Customer Reviews

Images are enlarged and pixelated - not what I expected.

I was expecting more of a thin "coffee table" book that would please my husband, a huge fan of Waterhouse. This is utterly useless in that regard; perhaps I am uncultured, but I can't imagine what purpose the images might serve - they are so pixelated and enlarged as to be disappointingly distorted. When I contacted the publisher, part of the explanation was "This publication is intended to provide samples of this artist [sic] work with little text devoted to discussion during restrictions to access due to covid." How a health epidemic could relate to the quality of the images and lack of text during publication, I can't fathom.

Terrible

The entire book is blurry and pixelated. I can't believe the poor quality of this book. It looks like someone photocopied parts of the paintings and slapped it together, there are no titles, no descriptions and absolutely no commentary whatsoever. Not worth the $20.
