Behind every great masterpiece of painting is a story, or rather stories.
From the Lascaux caves to the Temptation of Saint Anthony by Jérôme Bosch, from Van Eyck's Portrait of the Arnolfini couple to Cézanne's Card Players, from Botticelli's Venus to Douanier Rousseau's Snake Charmer, a thousand and one facets of the history of painting are revealed in this book.

Both sparkling and precise, Clémence Simon takes us on a journey of discovery of this fascinating story... reinvented under the brushes of Pierre-Adrien Sollier. A famous art historian once wrote: look closer and you will find the secrets of the most famous works in the great museums revealed... in the guise of Playmobil® characters!

Avoiding the pitfall of mere description, Clémence Simon places each work in its context, gives the keys to reading the image in today's words and combines her pen with Pierre-Adrien's images to achieve a sensitive and intuitive understanding of what is at stake in each painting. And the Playmobil® characters gradually introduce young readers to the contemplation of the originals as hidden treasures.
