A fascinating tour of some of the most amazing museums around the world
From Paris to Peking, from Rome to Amsterdam, from Marseille to Mexico, discover 13 extraordinary museums. Youll be accompanied on your visit by the very best guides: curators, architects, caretakers, artists . . . but also some more unexpected guests! Did you know, for example, the guardian of the Vatican carries hundreds of keys hanging from a chain? Each museum is presented on two double-page spreads. The reader begins each visit with a large illustration by the talented Benjamin Chaud, which presents a general view full of interesting and funny details. A second spread then gives a selection of information and anecdotes about the life of the museum. Featuring masterpieces, portraits of employees with exciting jobs, and tips for visitors, museums have never seemed so exciting.
