Great Reference

This book is full of information, wonderful illustrations, and it's absolutely beautiful. I'm amazed by the amount of information packed into this little book. Buy it!

great reference guide...

i've purchased several books like this and i have to say this is my favorite. i appreciate the manner in which they include information about the time period, artists, etc. and pictures of individual pieces. it's a quick read, great size and good reference book.

Must-Have Reference

This book was just what I had been searching for: a well-illustrated, thorough - yet concise - "all-encompassing" book of world art. This work covers individuals/creations from ancient times to present, and provides timelines and interesting facts like brief artist bios, the current locations of the featured masterpieces, and the official names of each artistic "period." Each artist gets his/her own few pages, describing his/her style/history, and there are tons of images, including one of the artist him/herself. It's quite substantial, and the pages have a high-quality shine. This is a great reference book and a jumping-off point for more in-depth exploration into art history and the people who shaped it.

Great book....

It's a great book. Stop reaidng this and buy it! :)
