Description of this Book

Painter and university lecturer Stephen Farthing presents 1001 of the greatest paintings from around the world and throughout the centuries. The general editor's unrivalled knowledge and first-hand experience of art enables him to select those paintings that are the most memorable and distinctive, together with those that have made a particular contribution to the development of painting as an art form. Included are popular paintings, key works that are the most breathtaking for their extra-ordinary power and beauty, paintings that were turning points in the history of art, and paintings that deserve a wider audience. 1001 Paintings You Must See Before You Die embraces all cultures and every style as it traces the development of painting techniques and traditions throughout the world from 4,000 BC right up to the present day.
