Ultramarine blue or azure blue, cobalt blue or Prussian blue... Using all the nuances offered by natural or synthetic pigments, of vegetable or mineral origin, artists have gradually made blue one of their best allies for painting the distance and the sky, the air and the cold, silence and melancholy, the divine and kings...
From Giotto to Yves Klein, from Bosch to Vermeer and from Leonardo da Vinci to Van Gogh, here is a history of Western painting revisited... in blue!

The original form of this box set allows you to delve into the heart of painting to discover the role of the color blue in the creation of artists. Accompanied by an explanatory booklet including an introduction and commentaries on works, this "accordion-style" book, all in images, displays around fifty works, in sets, in details, in close-ups.
