An original and breathtakingly beautiful perspective on how art
developed through the ages, this book reveals how new materials and
techniques inspired artists to create their greatest works. The
Story of Painting will completely transform your understanding and
enjoyment of art. Covering a comprehensive array of topics, from
the first pigments and frescos to linear perspective in Renaissance
paintings, the influence of photography, Impressionism, and the
birth of modern art, it follows each step in the evolution of
painting over the last 25,000 years, from the first cave paintings
to the abstract works of the last 100 years. Packed with lavish
colour reproductions of paintings and photographs of artists at
work and the materials they used, it delves into the key paintings
from each period to analyse the techniques and secrets of the great
masters in detail. Immerse yourself in the pages of this stunning
book and find yourself dazzled by new colours; marvel at the magic
of perspective; wonder at glowing depictions of fabric and flesh;
understand cubism; and embrace abstraction. You will look at
paintings in a whole new light.
