"In art institutions, in public libraries, in government buildings, we've seen photographs removed from exhibitions because they are considered too political, or angles shown that are misleading—like the number of people at the toppling of Saddam Hussein's statue, or the number of people at the Trump inauguration."

By LJ Reviews
Both readable and well illustrated, this is for all who delight in biographies, whether art history buffs or general readers; not only a fine complement to the exhibition for visitors, but also for art historians, art history students, and engaged general readers.
