'Understanding our things in action': innovative book gives new life to objects owned by 18th-century artists
Briefly

"As original as its subject, the book's form (available free online, with zoomable illustrations) invigorates the genre of artists' lives by centering on everyday objects."
"Katie Scott and Hannah Williams have fun with the order; 'Dressing-Up Box', evoking Watteau's response to cloth, is followed by 'Ecorché' and Houdon's body without skin."
