Colossal: As we near the end of 2022, we’re taking a look back at the year, starting with the books we found most compelling, impressive, and inspirational. We’ve published dozens of articles on artist monographs and compendiums of broader topics across art and design and science and history over the last 12 months, and these are the 10 titles that impacted us most.

I am honestly such a sucker for art books. I don't own very many just because I do not have the shelf space to support it, but nothing is more satisfying than just chilling on the sofa with an art book and just mindlessly flipping through it at night. That "Ocean, Exploring the Marine World" book looks like it would be fascinating. Also the Great Women (crossed out) Painters book. At the very least, the color and texture in those two images really hit.
Definitely stating the obvious, but there are tons of very good, very old art books. Particularly old photography books are fascinating, obviously the mundane objects of the past weren't as interesting in their time as they are now, but seeing so many scenes of what was once normal has always been very interesting to me.
Everyone should have some art books. They are a nice way of expanding your artistic horizons for relatively cheap if you scrounge through the used book market.
