Art: An Introduction

Features a simple, straightforward presentation. Part One covers the basic elements of art, design, iconography, and aesthetics: Part Two presents a chronological study of art through the ages. Terms and concepts are clearly defined within the text (a glossary has also been added to this edition) that has a larger trim size, a new double column format, more and enlarged black and white illustrations, and two 16-page color inserts. Within each chapter, artists are treated separately to provide the teacher with maximum freedom to vary the sequence of presentation.
