Synopsis
This is a key book for the study and enjoyment of Western art. This seventh edition has been revised and expanded and six new authors have been selected. Every image from the previous edition has been enhanced/refreshed using modern imaging technology., "I am delighted that you have chosen to divide the chapters among specialists, as no single art historian can have the level of expertise required to thoroughly update a survey art today... The new edition of Janson offers a fine introduction to the history of Western Art" Michael Amy, Rochester Institute of Technology Janson's classic book was first published in the 1960s. It is the 'father' of all art history books. Providing a survey of Western art from ancient times to the present day, it has been loved by generations of art enthusiasts. But times have changed and it was time for the book to change too. This new 7th edition is an art history book for the twenty-first century. The qualities associated with the book remain the same. It is as beautiful as it's always been - in fact every single image in the book has been replaced to ensure that the most recent, best quality representation of a particular work of art is used - and the quality of the writing is still of the highest standard. The major change is that six new authors have been selected to work on this edition, each a leading authority in his or her field. This will ensure that this book will continue to be respected and treasured by art lovers everywhere., This four-part volume uses an exceptional art program-with sumptuous color pictures-to introduce readers to a succession of art styles from prehistoric times and ancient Egypt, to the vast world of Western painting, sculpture, architecture, photography, and the minor arts. Elegantly written, it contains a balanced and interesting narrative that increases ones ability to understand art. Parts I and II cover The Ancient World and The Middle Ages, with a look at prehistoric; Egyptian; ancient near eastern; Aegean; Greek; Etruscan; Roman; early Christian, Byzantine, and Medieval; Romanesque; and Gothic art. Part III looks at the Renaissance through the Rococo-with a focus on the early and high renaissance in Italy; mannerism and other trends; " Late Gothic" painting, sculpture, and the graphic arts; and the Baroque in Italy, Spain, Flanders, Holland, France and England. Part IV is a treatment on the modern world, including Neoclassicism and Romanticism; Realism and Impressionism; Post-impressionism, Symbolism, and Art Nouveau; Twentieth-Century painting, sculpture, architecture, and photography; and Postmodernism. For those who appreciate art as individual works, rather than a mere collection of data.
