We just can say that The Garden in the Prado is one of the best books of this year without any doubt.
LIBRARY OF THE ROYAL BOTANICAL GARDEN OF MADRID, on Twitter
A book that wants to have close to you, and also to gift to someone very special.
EL BLOG DE LA TABLA, a gardening blog
A spectacular book for anyone who loves art, plants or simply beauty.
PAULA CORROTO, El Confidencial, a Spanish newspaper
A detailed work that shows passion and knowledge, beautifully illustrated (…) identity and memory (…). A different walk through the Prado.
MIGUEL CANO, El Cultural, a Spanish cultural magazine
I just thought this book was so clever. Such a simple idea but so well executed. It could have been a manual and it was written like a novel, full of energy. Excellent.
CHRIS THOMPSON, opinion on GoodReads
I recommended this book to everyone, specially to people that studied Art History. You see paintings in a different way. You enjoy them again.

I am fascinated with this book! (…) I used it in my art classes. My students requested me to go to the Prado to ‘investigate’ all the things that you wrote.
