1/2... Indispensable Reference and Guide to the World of Art
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
For a long time now,"The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Art and Artists" has been my guide and reference in relation to art and it's world. This reliable and comprehensive guide is a good source for information on artists, major works of art, schools in relation to the art scene, and the various movements and genres throughout it's history. One can come across well-written entries on "The Dying Gaul", Michelangelo, Impressionism, Bauhaus, and many others. The writing focuses primarily on the subject and his / her / it's influence, with a touch of the right amount of personal information to give it a considerably well-rounded, professional whole. Vast and informative, this classic reference guide is one of the best in the field. I look forward to purchasing the latest edition. - This is a review of the 1990 edition
