An exceptional and complete Metropolitan Seminars in Art educational collection published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and written by noted art historian John Canaday.
This impressive collection includes all 24 portfolios:
* Series I: Portfolios 1–12
* Series II: Portfolios A–L
Each portfolio contains instructional material designed to teach the history, techniques, and appreciation of Western art through high-quality color reproductions and accompanying educational content.
This set appears to retain its original teaching materials, including color print envelopes, review questions, pronunciation guides, and instructional inserts. These components are frequently missing from surviving sets, making this a particularly desirable example for collectors, educators, museums, libraries, and designers.
The portfolios feature works by many of history’s greatest artists while exploring movements including Realism, Expressionism, Abstraction, Renaissance, Medieval, Classical, and Modern art.
A beautiful display piece as well as an important educational archive
