We publish here the list of books we receive in order to keep our readers regularly informed about new publications in the field of art history. As this section has not appeared for far too many months, we divide it into three parts.
The purpose here is to note their publication, possibly adding a brief description explaining what they are about (or publishing elements provided by the publisher on the back cover) and sometimes offering an opinion on their presentation. Several of these works have been or will later be the subject of full articles.
