At the outset I must admit to having been predisposed to like this book--for it presented a facet of Delacroix's work that was all but unknown to me (his work in pastels, I mean).
Since for me Delacroix is one of the four or five greatest French artists and, arguably, the greatest artist of the nineteenth century (yes, even above Turner), I have found with this book of his pastels, even more to admire.
Johnson's writing is clear and comprehensive and the quality of the reproductions (the photographs of the originals) is fine.
Now I would like an over-size volume devoted to Delacroix's frescoes!
