Art History published by Taschen

Art History introduces major movements that reshaped modern art, moving across Impressionism, Expressionism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, and Pop Art through concise monographs and well-chosen reproductions.

“What I like most is that it gives a household library enough structure to make later, more specialized art books easier to understand. It makes the book feel considered rather than merely impressive.”
-Mrs. Mayfair
