This is a new edition of a reference book about the European paintings collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. This new edition of the summary catalogue is in one volume and each picture is reproduced, with its description, on a two-page spread. Artists are listed by school, and the paintings are arranged chronologically within that designation. Two indexes enable readers to find individual artists by page number, and the works of art by accession numbers. Many revisions have been made, including new acquisitions, reattributions, and deaccessions. Included are collections of Robert Lehman and Linsky.
