In the first book of its kind, Aaron Rosen tells the story of how
art developed across the world. He takes young readers on a journey
through art history, from the Palaeolithic period to the present
day, stopping off at thirty different locations around the world.
As readers travel from one incredible destination to the next, they
will discover the remarkable network of caves carved into the rock
in ad 500 at Ajanta, India; Cambodia's remarkable Angkor Wat as it
stood in ad 1200; the glories of Renaissance Florence in ad 1500;
and the remarkable energy in New York in the 1950s. At every
stop-off point readers will encounter stories of astonishing
artworks and the cultures that gave birth to them. There are three
sections: prehistoric and ancient; medieval and early modern; and
modern and contemporary. At each location, two beautifully
illustrated spreads allow children to engage with the art,
artifacts and culture of a unique place in time. Along the way, key
movements and ideas are picked out and explained for a young
audience. A Journey Through Art is the perfect companion for young
explorers of the world's cultural history
