History of Art for Young People Hardcover - 2003 - 6th Edition

by Janson, H. W., Janson, Anthony F

  • Used

For 40 years this widely praised work has remained unsurpassed as an introduction to art in the Western world. And now-with a more contemporary, more colorful design and with 30 percent more color illustrations than in previous editions-this newest update of the Janson classic is an enticing volume. The book features improved sections on ancient art, modern architecture, Mannerism, and Romanticism. Revised material on the late Renaissance reassesses the religious paintings of Rosso, Pontormo, Savoldo, Correggio, and Tintoretto. A primer section features an introduction to basic terminology and concepts of art history.

With the matchless credibility of the Janson name, this convenient-to-use reference will inform, enlighten, and enrich the entire family.
