Dear Kate,
Thank you for your letter! What is the title of the book that you have mentioned in your previous letter? I'd like to read it as well. Recently I have started reading books about famous painings and galleries. It helps me understand the history of the painting better. I'm slowly starting to understand what were the art trends hundreds years ago and who was famous back then. Needless to say some of the old paintings are stunning. There are a couple of books that I think you would love. You can find them on the internet. I bought mine in one of the online shops and they were delivered to my doorstep. Let me know if you'd like me to send you the book titles!
Take care,
Olivia
