THE STORY OF ART

Lovely book, a delight to read.I am doing an art course online and this was a recommended reading.I have enjoyed reading it so far. The book arrived after almost a month but it was in a great condition

Don't know why I picked "The story of art" so late in life. What enrichment and enlightenment- unbelievable how lucidly Gombrich chronicles art history. It also helps that I love renaissance art and particularly Da Vinci - The book has positive bias on both and I don't mind it. A must possess and must read!

An excellent work.

The most popular art book in history. Gombrich examines the technical and aesthetic problems confronted by artists since the dawn of time

It's been a visual treat with the thoughtfully selected images of the paintings been spoken about. And the content is shared in an easy flowing manner making the understanding of history of art joyous

If all history books were written in the fashion of 'the Story of Art', I might have become a history fanatic. Even though it's a paperback, the paper and font used makes this book a pleasure to read; the art displayed in its pages are of high quality.

I am glad the own this excellent, very informative and well written book.E. Gombrich, its author, was a very knowledgeable and talented man.

Muy buen libro.

A very comprehensive look at art. The author though does not stick to paintings only, but includes sculptures and architecture as well. You see all three progressing through the centuries. The book has good colour pictures throughout. Highly recommended.

The quality is very nice, colorful and carefulness
