Description
From cave paintings to Jeff Koons—in less than 80 feet! That’s where this stunningly illustrated history of art takes you. With pictures of paintings, sculptures, museum artifacts, and architectural standouts that seem to pop from the pages, and a cross-cultural approach that encompasses European, American, Asian, and Islamic masterpieces, it proceeds on a thrilling visual tour. Carol Strickland—author of the bestselling Annotated Mona Lisa (300,000 copies sold)—serves as guide, and delivers superb background that sets the stage for each era’s timeline, as well as informative sidebars that reveal the broader implications of new styles and movements.
