ART2002

"This new book, Art, covers the entire range of painted art from the thirteenth century to the modern day, reaching through the cradle of European discovery and the dynamo of North American art to traditional forms in the Far and Middle East. This unique approach and the powerful, arresting visual appeal of the wonderful paintings within provide a breathtaking degree of richness and diversity, unmatched by any comparable title. The core section is the A-Z by artist, giving equal prominence to traditional and modern artists from every part of the world. Each entry offers essential information about the artist, including influences, key works, and associated artists."--BOOK JACKET.
