About This Book
Gombrich's The Story of Art has been a treasured standard in the field,
selling more than 4 million copies since its first edition in 1950. Now
in its 16th edition and available for the first time in paperback, this
comprehensive look at Western art from prehistoric times on up to the
present has been completely redesigned and extensively revised and
updated. In addition, the illustrations have all been enhanced, and a
total of 443 are now in color. Gombrich is more than an authority, he's
an advocate, and his love and deep respect for art infuse his
invigorating text. In his discussion of twentieth-century art, for
instance, Gombrich explains how even the most experimental contemporary
art is connected in some way to what has gone before. Gombrich tells the
story of art "as the story of a continuous weaving and changing of
traditions in which each work refers to the past and points to the
future." Gombrich's invaluable history is a veritable celebration of
this "living chain." --Donna Seaman
