Here one finds Ford Madox Ford writing on Holbein, Sartre on Tintoretto, Genet on Rembrandt, Proust on Chardin, Elizabeth Bishop on Gregorio Valdes, Randall Jarrell on abstract expressionism, and many other stimulating combinations. Each selection is accompanied by a full-page reproduction of the artist's work.
