La última edición del manual de Getty presenta una perspectiva fascinante de los objetos de la colección del J. Paul Getty Museum.

Esta nueva edición del The J. Paul Getty Museum Handbook of the Collection (El Museo J. Paul Getty Manual de la colección) incluye más de 380 de los objetos más apreciados en el museo. Se ha actualizado para agregar las numerosas y emocionantes adquisiciones nuevas, como Fire Island (Isla de fuego) de Adger Cowans y Portrait of Mai (Omai) (Retrato de Mai "Omai") de Joshua Reynolds, y presenta una reseña de la colección de Getty más reconocida a nivel mundial y de la historia del museo y de su famoso fundador.

Desde tesoros del mundo antiguo y manuscritos medievales hasta dibujos renacentistas, muebles franceses, pinturas impresionistas, fotografías icónicas estadounidenses y mucho más, el manual ofrece una mirada indispensable del arte tanto en la magníficamente reimaginada Getty Villa en Malibú como en el deslumbrante Getty Center, construido en una cima de la ciudad de Brentwood. Esta edición, con espléndidas ilustraciones y un hermoso nuevo diseño, es un manual imprescindible para los amantes del arte, ya sean visitantes habituales de ambos espacios o aquellos que aún no han vivido la experiencia.
