Nice overview, nice categories of topics. But the organization was odd, there seemed to be too many explanations of pictures and too few pictures! Sometimes I couldn't figure out what the book was talking about, because none of the pictures on the page corresponded with the description. Numbers below each image would have helped. And I don't quite understand the title, since so much of the works had to do with religion and the church.
