I consider myself an avid enthousiast when it comes to art, and have spent many an hour wandering through the Louvre, Hermitage, Met and Prado. Having read this book, I've realised that art for me has indeed always leant more towards an experience of recognition. The author is dismissive of the importance of labels and I similarly wonder what he thinks of my constant use of audio-guides to "rationalise" my way through a museum. For my next visit to a museum, whenever that may be, I have promised myself to spend less time reading the accompanying labels and spend more time travelling down the inroads of Street's suggested themes.
This book is highly recommended for anyone, like me, who considers themselves an enthousiast deserving of a subtle nudge in re-assessing their appreciation of art.
