A newbie saying hi! Happy new year everyone. ;-) This is Ida from PaintingZ. We are an online art studio.  If you appreciate the ancient masters and their works as we do, you may want to take a look: Free Artbooks Download - PaintingZ.com at these books. They are compiled to list a selection of the works and paintings by talented artists in the old times. Each page contains one artwork, with details including the time created, the size, the current location, the style, and movement, etc. All paintings have been arranged chronologically to reveal how an artist tried and developed the skills until the artistic maturity during the artist's career and in between genres and movements.  It was not easy to do the job as it did take us some time to figure out a way to mass-produce the books. Just hoping these books might be of some help to you and we should be really glad if they do. 🎅🏻

We are not your best audience; most of us will already have heaps of books like this as part of our training and unless your books have good amounts of  previously unpublished information we won't need more. Why not try selling on Amazon? You'll find a bigger market there.

Hardly free artbooks.  You forget to mention that each artwork comes with a link to help you purchase a reproduction, and a link to the artist that simply takes you to  a page of potential purchases.   The supposed books are simply pdf files which are a no more than a collection of adverts.

Not so much art books as order forms really, aren't they?  I appreciate that someone has put a lot of work into putting this together, but very few of us here are interested in buying paintings, and certainly not alla-prima copies of works that were painted, usually, in a very different technique.   Most of us could do that ourselves if we really wanted to copy old paintings.
