Any Books with paintings?

[jambredz]

I've always heard to study paintings to see how they are lit to get better at lighting. So I'm trying to find a book or books with a compilation of classic paintings to see how they are lit. Anybody know of any?

Here's a couple of painting technique books. We have these on our shelves. While some may be 'old' books, much of the analysis is still valid. (And there are most likely used books for cheap...).
