Art: A Brief History

The book was in excellent condition. Great Value for a Great Price. It was definitely better than I expected and I plan to purchase next year's books from this same source. Thank you very much!!

This is a great book on World History through the Arts and Minds of Artists throughout the ages. The author has provided a scaled down version of another book of Art. This is a heavy book to carry, not recommended for pregnant mothers or people with bad backs. Maybe it's not that bad, but it is loaded with creativity and passion. This book covers sculptors, painters, pencil artists, stain glass, plaster and paint, the entire gammit of creation has been expounded in this edition. Having visited many Museum's such as the Louvre, the MET, palaces in Germany, castles in Italy, Historical Ruins around the globe. This is an excellent book, bringing back some of these memories. I really enjoyed this study.

This is a well made book, the paper is nice and thick so the pages don't rip. The content is great! It even keeps a computer geek interested. :)

This book actually made learning interesting and not boring! There is also an online site where you can take self quizzes over the chapters to see if you are understanding.

First off, I have to send out a compliment to the seller once again. She was quick and fantastic! I have hundreds of books. This one is a keeper. I appreciate how well-written this book is. It gives a brief history of art from the beginning of time. I had taken an Art History class, way back in 1974. It was nothing like the class I took this summer, fast, informative and furious. With the help of my professor and this excellent text, I was able to do extremely well in the class. I would recommend this text to anyone!
