Reviews
This is a great textbook for anyone taking an art history course. It's very thorough in its descriptions of famous works and provides great historical context. The book also has an extensive glossary of artists and terms in the back making it the perfect choice, even for non-majors.The seller said there were no marks or scratches anywhere in or on the book and I'm happy to report that they were absolutely right. The book arrived in perfect condition and it now accompanies me to Starbucks at least once a week.
