What is Thre History of Art about?

639 pages : 28 cm This beautifully illustrated volume presents the magnificence of the art world in a unique and refreshing light. It is a universal history which spans the whole range of artistic expression, from the distant age of prehistoric art over 30,000 years ago to the current trends of our modern day. Besides offering a thorough treatment of Western art, it devotes major sections to the art of the Orient, Islam, India, Africa, Oceania and the Americas. Ample space is given to the different forms of art, so along with painting there are also individual chapters on twentieth-century sculpture and architecture. A section in itself is devoted solely to the history of photography -- a subject often neglected by traditional one-volume histories -- and contains more than forty illustrations. Each subject is treated by an expert in the field. From cave art to classicism, from the Renaissance to the avant-garde, The History of Art offers a comprehensive view of artistic production throughout the centuries. With a wealth of information and over 900 illustrations in color and black-and-white, it is an essential volume for art lovers and historians alike "Introduction by Vittorio Sgar
