The Art Book

Paintings, sculpture and the movements that produced them are laid out as a visual survey running from early masters to contemporary work. Each entry pairs a reproduction with a concise account of the artist, the period and what made the piece matter, so the volume reads as both a gallery and a short history. Coverage moves chronologically while grouping related styles, making it straightforward to trace how one movement answered another. Scope of the volume: • Full-colour reproductions of widely recognised works • Short profiles of the artists behind them • Movements and periods explained in sequence • A reference structure that also works as a coffee-table browse Art students, gallery-goers and readers building a general arts shelf will find this DK Publishing volume at Boipoka.
