Each page boasts a large, colorful quality reproduction of one work of art, with a few biographical and contextual lines underneath.
I love that it's more art than history, concisely well-written, and that there are surprisingly many pieces I don't know. The diversity makes a visual feast.
The features that make this book so sensual forfeit the comprehensiveness its title suggests. This book is more sumptuous than encyclopedic, but it certainly gives you one good, long look at a remarkable number of styles, pivotal pieces that maximize the experience.
