5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, February 24, 2004

This review is from: Art across Time, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
The way the book is set up makes it easy to scan for artists and paintings. There are boxes of offset text about certain subjects relating to each time period (for example the importance of the Salon in the French Baroque period). If you own only one art history book, this one is a great one for you to own.
