Comments

A lot of the pictures shown here have been seen before in Taschen's own "Art Now" series. Do you know if this is the case for the whole book?

@Anonymous
I don't have any 'Art Now' books to compare to so I can't tell.

I suppose there might be overlap because some of the 'Art Now' series are condensed editions of the original. They did a few condensed editions (not 'Art Now') for some old masters books like Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci. Those contain overlapping materials.
