Review
'Rosenthal makes Gainsborough's paint 'sometimes licked, sometimes dragged across the surface', sound positively sexy. Rosenthal's, at times, rhapsodic prose if matched by the high quality of colour reproduction and layout we have come to expect from Yale University Press.' - Martin Postle - British Art Journal
