In tune with today's readers–rich but never effete–this is the art history book of choice for a new generation. Presenting a broad view of art from the early Renaissance in Europe through the Avant Garde since 1945, it sympathetically and positively introduces the works of all artists. This includes women, artists of color, and the arts of other continents and regions, as well as those of Western Europe and the United States. The new edition contains even more full-color reproductions, larger images, redrawn maps and timelines, and new photographs and higher quality images. Balancing both the traditions of art history and new trends of the present, Art History is the most comprehensive, accessible, and magnificently illustrated work of its kind. Broad in scope and depth, this beautifully illustrated work features art from the following time periods and places: Renaissance art; Baroque art; art of the Pacific cultures; the rise of modern art; and the international Avant-Garde since 1945. An excellent reference work and beautiful edition for any visual artist.

My son's textbook turns out to be a pleasure to me! This is Volume Two of a two volume set on art history. It covers the period from early Renaissance art in Europe to the post-1945 international avant-garde. In between is art from Europe and other parts of the world, including India, China, Japan, the Americas, the Pacific cultures, and Africa. The Introduction places the time frame in this book in context.
The book begins with such architectural gems as the Church of Saint-Maclou in Rouen, van Eyck's art, tapestry, frescoes, the Dome of the Florence Cathedral, Donatello's sculpture, and so on. Fast forward to the avant-garde. Anselm Kiefer's painting, "Heath of the Brandenberg March," is very telling to me.
All in all, a nice tour of art in all its forms and in different regions of the world from the Renaissance to the present. . . .

This book is amazing! I got the book within a few days and it was new, just as I expected. I'm using it to study for my AP Art History class and it's just what I needed. It has comprehensive explanations of all the major works of Art History starting at Gothic European Art. I strongly recommended it for anyone interested in learning about art.

I ordered this book and never received it. After the appropriate time had passed, I contacted the seller. It was stated that the book had indeed been shipped. I allowed more time to pass in order to file a dispute after having contacted the seller 2 more times and never hearing back. I'm not sure what happened with this order, but it ended up being more trouble than it's worth.
