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 through the centuries, 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: prehistoric art in Europe; ancient art of the Near East, Egypt, the Aegean, and Greece; Roman and Etruscan art; Jewish, early Christian, and Byzantine art; Islamic art; art from ancient India, China, Japan, and the Americas; medieval art in Europe; Romanesque, Gothic, and 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.

This review is from: Art History Exam Copy, Portable Edition Value Pack (3rd Edition) (Paperback)
This book set is perfect for teachers and students, the reduced weight makes it preferably for carrying in a book bag. I really wish that it included the box to keep all books together on shelf.

while the six volumes were present and in good condition when purchasing a boxed set I expected the box and despite paying for expedited shipping I still had to go two weeks without my text in class.
