A great look at a beautiful era

I was/am thrilled with this book. I have a particular love for this period of art. The book presents much more of a variety than I was able to find anywhere else. As an amature artist, I am looking forward to trying to use these types by hand. Of course some are more complicated and ornate than I could possibly do by hand, but what inspiring examples!
