This heavy tome offers an incredibly detailed overview of Western Art, covering various periods, styles, techniques, and defining works. Organized chronologically, the volume is divided into four parts. Parts I and II cover the Ancient World and the Middle Ages; Part III the Renaissance and the Baroque through the Rococo period; Part IV the modern world and beyond. Beautifully illustrated, “Janson’s History of Art” remains one of the most famous and widely read surveys of the Western art canon to date.
