Art: A Visual History includes:
Â Â Â â€¢Â More than 650 artists and all the major schools and movements, all arranged chronologically.
Â Â Â â€¢Â Close-up focus on 22 masterpieces, from Ancient Greek sculpture to 1960s Pop Art.
Â Â Â â€¢Â Well-known icons along with lesser-known gems â€” carefully chosen to illuminate the points made in the text.
Â Â Â â€¢Â Features on major schools and movements to explore and explain their stylistic trademarks, characteristics, and favored subjects.
