Condition
Unlike most of these gigantic volumes, this one is in extremely wonderful condition rasily rating a Very Good Condition rating. Just faint rubs on the jacket and that's it. The title page shows what at first appears to be some light staining but on closer inspection it becomes obvious that the facing page with a dark, painting illustration has rubbed a little onto the title page which it faces.
The book retains its original square shape well.
Jacket Status: The inside dust jacket flap is uncut and intact.
Stats:
Edition: 1st Printing: 1st Year: 1985 Publisher: National Gallery of Art Pages: 679 with comprehensive index

Payment Policies
- eBay now ONLY allows for PayPal payment for items such as this one.
- We do not think it's fair to other bidders to end an auction early unless there is an error or omission in the listing.
Shipping Policies and International Bidding
- Save Postal Costs when you win more than one item. See our current eBay Auction Catalog Here.
- ***We refuse to profit from shipping! It's high enough as is. Once we cover your package and mailing costs, we refuse to add one cent more to your cost!***
- We often sell books and if you're ordering single books that require no larger boxing, you do not have to worry about bumps in the mail! We mail every single book in new cardboard boxing for heavy-duty protection (unless the size is awkward and using our book mailers would not adequately protect your book in transit - then we may opt to re-use a like-new, CLEAN and sturdy box.)
- We frequently ship within 24 hours of receiving proper payment!
-
International Bidders: We can not mark customs forms as "gift" for this or any other sale and we must write an accurate declaration of value. International Bidders Please Note: If this item weighs more than 4 pounds, we are forced by our postal system to ship via Priority Mail because we are not allowed to ship via Economy Surface anymore and the slightly less costly First Class Airmail is only available for items 4 pounds and under. We do NOT like this expensive postage and if you know of a less costly way to get your item to you we are open to suggestions.
-
International Buyers, Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges (typically collected upon delivery or pickup) are the buyer's responsibility and are not included in the item price or shipping charges. Please check with your country's customs office prior to bidding to determine what these additional costs will be.
-
Many of our buyers have been surprised to find a refund from us! If shipping is much less than estimated, we'll immediately refund your over-payment.

If you win other auctions from our Auction Catalog Here we will greatly reduce combined shipping charges!
