This looks like a wonderful series of books - the pictures are all large, full color and glossy, a pleasure to look at.
A wide variety of artworks are presented, from paintings to sculptures to tapestries.
The interesting thing about this book in particular is that pieces from many museums, and also from locations that are not museums, are presented. I know that I personally will never in my life have a chance to go to Yugoslavia, so this is a chance to get a look at some pieces I would never get to see.
With that said, though, although I did enjoy flipping through the book, it is not one I think I would look at again. Almost half of the book is religious-themed art which is, to me, a bit repetitive after a while. It's not that I didn't enjoy it, just that I got tired of it after about 30 pages of it.
My personal favorite artworks shown in the book can be found on pages 47, 57, 72, 83, 93, 103, 125, 143, 145 and 155.
