5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent synopis, 31 Dec 2002
By Jasminetea (London, UK) - See all my reviews
A pocket-sized delight of a book and a great companion to any bookshelf, The 20th Century Art Book: Mini Edition is something you'll want to flick through regularly. Each page features an analysis of the greatest artists of this century, along with an image of a related artwork. Apart from the familiar faces, this book will educate and inspire you with stories of little-known artists you'll want to find out more about.

This review is from: The 20th Century Art Book (Hardcover)
