Tour of the mediaeval art museum in Fort Tryon Park, Manhattan, constituted from components of European monasteries and housing the Unicorn Tapestries, Robert Campin's Annunciation (c. 1425), sculptures and artifacts; illustrated throughout with color photographs (plates and cuts) and diagrams of each room. 7-1/4" x 9-1/4", printed on glossy stock, very light shelf wear, touch of foxing to end papers, pages unmarked.
