热门书评：
Press reviews "Gigantic but accessible… every family home should have one" The Bookseller Winner of The Sunday Times Art Book of the Year "This staggeringly impressive, wonderfully well-designed book is almost what it claims to be. It’s a guide to the world’s painting and sculpture from prehistory to the present day, and with no fewer than 2,500 illustrations it’s certainly visual, though words do play an important part as well. Pleasingly, too, this isn’t just a chronologically arranged compendium bursting at the seams with reproductions; it also tells you about artistic movements, schools, techniques, materials and the achievements of individual artists. Even with the inclusion of some lightweight artists, it’s a near-perfect overview of art history." The Sunday Times |
