David Hockney and Martin Gayford explain each piece of art in the book, helping young minds to grasp difficult concepts. The book tracks the many twists and turns toward artistic invention, allowing readers to fully appreciate how and why art has changed and includes an illustrated timeline of inventions. Original illustrations by Rose Blake add a personal perspective on a wide variety of images.
