Ship Models In The Thomson Collection At The Art Gallery Of Ontario Paperback – Illustrated, 1 Oct. 2008

Copious pictures in good colour of a wide range of antique models from the age of sail to modern times. A fantastic reference of antique ships, and I mean antique, Admiralty board and commission models from hundreds of years ago in perfect condition formerly in the hands of a very wealthy collector now on public display.

Occorre essere appassionati al tema per poterlo apprezzare

This beautifully made book has page upon thick page of great color photos of ship models from the Thomson Collection at the Art Gallery of Ontario (Canada). Each model is shown in an overall photo as well as close ups. Not a speck of dust is to be seen.

Like very much the photos. Good reference for model makers. Intend to visit the museum.

見開き全ページに69隻，260枚以上の写真が掲載されている。帆船と動力船が半々。比較的大型のサイズの本なので、見開き一面の写真以外でも迫力十分である。ページをめくると、博物館で順路をたどりながら模型の実物を見ているような気分になる。

Gorgeous! I love this book!
