An essential art history guide, showcasing 100 landmark paintings that trace the evolution of styles and influences from cave art to contemporary masterpieces.

How have our artistic talents travelled from the earliest forms of cave painting to the abstract art of today? Who influenced whom in the 'family tree' of artists? The renowned British art historian Susie Hodge selects 100 paintings that represent milestones in the timeline of art history. They may highlight historical events, reveal shifts in techniques and style or developments in painting materials. Not only is each painting put into its contemporary context, but it is also assessed for the impact that it had on the subsequent journey of art. Perfect for dipping into or reading straight through, this insightful collection of works will take readers on an amazing journey to discover the 'artistic' ancestors of such great artists as Rembrandt, Fragonard, Monet, Cézanne, Rothko and Hockney.
