Book Overview

IN A VERY SHORT TIME, Marilyn Stokstad's Art History has become the gold standard of introductions to the history of art. It also has transformed the way the field of art history is perceived and experienced. Engaging, accessible, and, just as important, fun, Art History gives today's readers cultural and social contexts for art along with eloquent visual explanations of art's special qualities and particular vocabularies.

Great service, on time delivery for a required text that was out of stock at the bookstore - brand new and markedly cheaper!

Art History, Revised Second Edition, Volume II

The item received was as described in the posting, both in content and condition advertized. Although not specifically listed in the posting, the item included an accompanying DVD which one would have gotten if the item had been purchased new in a store. The item arrived in excellent condition but, 2 days beyond the latest date given in the posting.

Fast Shipper

I got the book within a week of order. The book arrived in great condition. It was a good experience, stress free.

Very GOOD

The book was in great shape and arrived quickly. I was very pleased

Superb overview & reference!

This book is simply wonderful. It is indeed physically ponderous (this 2nd edition is one very, very large book, not two slipcased books as shown in some illustrations). However, its content easily compensates for its considerable bulk. All historical periods of art history are chronicled, with copious illustrations well-produced and nearly all in color. The text is incisive and easy to follow, yet never boring.I recommend this book to any and all art lovers, whether beginners, advanced students, or just those who desire a comprehensive reference for library or home use. I personally consider this publication a better choice than the otherwise excellent Janson "History of Art" for most readers-- the writing is just more user-friendly, in my opinion (and the content is more inclusive, especially regarding non-Western art).
