| |  | | | In Brief
Now the definitive survey of Western art is available in a deluxe, one-volume slipcased edition-an appropriately elegant presentation for a matchless classic. This new History of Art is bound in rich cloth and stamped in gold foil, and placed in a slipcase bearing Botticelli's Primavera, a favorite painting of artlovers everywhere. Inside, the Fifth Edition Revised includes such useful features as parallel discussions of cultural developments and art movements from ancient Greek times through our own era, and a gazetteer of art museums and architectural sites. Of course, the book's sumptuous five-color reproductions and rich black-and-whites far surpass in number and quality those found in any other survey. History of Art is truly without peer.
| | | | From The Publisher
Added to the Fifth Edition Revised are more than forty concise discussions of cultural developments paralleling movements in art, from ancient Greek times through our own Postmodern era. These masterly essays focus mainly on music and theater, and also include such topics as Greek and Roman mythology, Christian iconography, Western monastic orders, and medieval guilds. These new features enrich the updated and reworked text and the 115 primary-source readings that are unique to History of Art.
