From the primitive paintings in the caves of Lascaux to the colours and shapes of contemporary abstract art, this book offers a comprehensive chronology of art and its relationship to the history of mankind. The range is universal - from the pyramids of ancient Egypt to the mosques of Islam, from Gothic cathedrals to the masterpieces of Chinese terracotta - and the text explores many often-neglected topics.
