This compendium of short, thought-provoking essays and surprising insights by the staff of The Metropolitan Museum of Art focuses on 100 works--both famous highlights and little-known gems--to explore artistic representations of relationships, the self, politics, spirituality, and the environment. The wide-ranging texts probe the enduring resonance of an Egyptian temple built two thousand years ago, reflect on an ancient Roman sculpture of a wounded warrior, examine spirituality through a fourteenth-century Chinese incense box, muse on Giorgio de Chirico's family history drawn from his painting \u003ci\u003eAriadne\u003c\/i\u003e (1913), and touch on many other topics. For the first time, a book brings together voices from across The Met--curators, conservators, designers, editors, educators, and librarians--to consider how art inspires us to connect to the world and to each other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished by The Metropolitan Museum of Art\/Distributed by Yale University Press\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMax Hollein\u003c\/b\u003e is Marina Kellen French Director and CEO of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 488\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.7 x 7.5 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 28, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45398667165831,"sku":"9781588398093","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/s5K6y-1VPx9781588398093.webp?v=1785930635","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/points-of-view-100-connections-to-art-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
