There are tons of links that drop in my Facebook news feed and generally I just let them pass by. Today someone posted a link stating that the Metropolitan Museum of Art was offering 422 books from their collection....for FREE! Sometimes free seems too good to be true.
In my curiosity, I decided to check it out and low and behold you really can get 422 books for free. You can read them online, download the PDF, or even print them out. These books were written about collections they had featured in the past. Mind you the most recent books are not available for free but knowing about this collection is pretty important if you are an art nerd. There is a wealth of knowledge in these books which span so many time frames and art tastes.
Bloom
Caspar David Friedrich
The Ceaseless Century: Three Hundred Years of 18th Century Costume
Contemporary Ceramics
Degas, 1834-1917
Seriously....I could go on forever about some awesome work in this collection. Stop by and have a look at what they offer. Free is free!!
