The book is an excellent source of solid knowledge. One of the best books on classical oil painting technique I've ever seen. It is not for everybody, however. Beginers might be dissapointed if they are trying to find a quick way of learning oil painting. But if they really want to learn the art and science of oil painting, this book is a must have. For the knowledgeable painter, this book is a nice reference document.
