Beautiful volume that combines art with the historical context and related details that make for an interesting read, no matter where you open the book. High quality printing and paper. ( )

What can I say about this book?

It's fantastic!

It's amazing!

It's interesting!

It's knowledgeable!

And it's fun! I couldn't put it down until I had devoured every single page!

It runs the gamut of the art world. From the pyramids to the modern age! The how's, the why's, and the gee whizzes!

This would make a great gift for anyone! A wonderful coffee table book! Perfect for any art lover.

My only flaw is that my copy arrived with the spine broken! I'm so in love with it, however, that I'm going to take it to a bookbinder and see if I can get it repaired. Yes, it's that great!

I give this book five stars,

a big thumbs up,

and I highly recommend it! ( )
