Synopsis
Every museum and every gallery may have its own catalogue, but here is a survey of European art which will take you easily and quickly through ten centuries of painting. Compiled by a team of leading experts in their fields, and written in clear language for ease of appreciation and understanding, Crash Course in Art sweeps from medieval religious frescos to the modern period when every ten years brought a new kind of technique to the fore. More than 100 illustrations in colour highlight techniques and characteristics of individual artists, while the text provides illuminating insights into the background of their world. A unique feature is the concise listing of 500 artists, with their biographical details; a full index and a bibliography for further reading plus a technical glossary give you all the back-ground information.
