The ultimate visual compendium of Western painting, The Little Big Art Book spans the entire history of Western painting, from Prehistory to Post-Impressionism. With more than 450 colour reproductions of the greatest paintings, frescoes, and mosaics, it covers every significant style and period. Beginning with prehistoric Europe, ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, it moves through Byzantine and Gothic art, and on to the Renaissance, Mannerism, Baroque, Rococo, Neo-Classic and Romantic painting, and finishes with Impressionism and the eclectic Post-Impressionists who heralded the avant-garde movements of the 20th century.
