HONOUR Hugh, FLEMING John - History of World Art

The ambition of its authors was to include a comparative analysis of the art of all centers and continents from prehistory to the end of the 20th century, taking into account the latest archaeological discoveries and a new view of non-European art.

The immense material, covering the history of painting, sculpture, architecture, drawing and handicrafts, is divided into five sections:

1. The Foundations of Art
2. Art and religions of the world
3. Religious and secular art
4. Formation of the modern world
5. Art of the 20th century

The publication contains extremely interesting comparative lists of works of art, translations of source documents, reproductions and drawings, maps and plans, and chronological tables that help to understand the importance and role of art, its relationship to great historical changes.
