Synopses & Reviews
A fresh approach to art history through the exploration of great artists and art in a worldwide context. Keying on a prominent artist, each title examines works created by the artist, by near contemporaries -- and by artists in distant parts of the world, including Africa, Asia and the Americas. The result is both a broad and fascinating portrait of the arts, as well as, a feast for the eyes in the reproduction of striking works of art from around the world.
