A tongue in cheek, house tour booklet offers amusing hints for readers as they go about identifying masterpieces by the likes of Bosch, Goya, Monet, Rodin, van Gogh, and Whistler. (The solution key is tucked away behind a secret panel in the library.) This is an irresistible and wholly original gift for art lovers -- or for anyone who appreciates clever and humorous entertainment. It is sure to reveal new treasures every time it is opened.
