A World History of Art

A world history of art by Hugh Honour and John Fleming (revised 7th edition) is a new book that is now available for loan from the Learning Centre.

"For over a quarter of a century this art historical tour de force has consistently proved the classic introduction to humankind's artistic heritage. From our Paleolithic past to our digitised present, every continent and culture is covered in an articulate and well-balanced discussion - a broad and epic canvas that omits none of the fine detail. In this Revised Seventh Edition, contemporary art historian Michael Archer has brought the account of contemporary art over the last twenty years right up to date, reflecting the latest developments that continue to shape our cultural history." -- back cover
