Art in the Nineteenth Century

I first bought this book for my daughter because she was fascinated by my art books but flummoxed by the text. She was enchanted by the book! It gives an insight into many of the great works of the era - including images that she has seen portrayed in pop art of this century, as well as in advertising and other media.If you have a child who is artistic or is merely interested in the images that make up our world today, this is an excellent grounding in a complex and colourful topic.
