Description

Looking at 90 of history's greatest masterpieces to explain just what makes them great, this work contains brief, informative essays that examine each work from historic and cultural perspectives and offers intriguing observations and interesting anecdotes about the artists and their eras. Full-page, colour representations accompany each essay and additional illustrations shed light on how - and why - the paintings remain influential.
