Le grand atelier, by Les Canailles

Have you ever dreamt of stepping into an artist’s studio? Seeing what Leonardo da Vinci or Van Gogh’s workshops looked like? This beautiful book offers a peek behind the scenes of 16 art studios, from Antiquity to nowadays. Europe, Asia, Africa and America’s greatest sculptors, filmmakers, engravers, architects and photgraphers open up their doors.

Each workshop is presented on two double-page spreads. On the first one, an artist’s portrait and 15 objects relating to their work, along with a text about their art; and then, a full page illustration plunging the reader into their studio… including a game of seek and find. A beautifully illustrated book in an XXL format to be shared in family.

Hardcover non-fiction, 26 x 37 cm, 72 pages, 5 years +
