This is a very specific type of book I’m searching for, but trying my luck that anyone can suggest something that suits the criteria.
Im looking for a non-fiction book that has popular historical paintings based on historical events. The book must include details about the paintings and discuss the background and meaning behind each art work, but specifically I’m after exclusively (or mostly) melancholy themes.
○ Art Book
○ Paintings of, or inspired by historical events
○ Explanation
○ Paintings so sad that it makes me want to cry
Long shot, but thank you anyone who can suggest. I’ve seen lots of art books but nothing so far that matches all the criteria.
