Art is one of the most striking forms of materialization of eternity. Strictly speaking, created by great masters does not have the price at all – it is beautiful, unique and absolutely by accident, be it Venus Milo, “Sistine Madonna” Raphael or the air fabric of the French impressionists.
Books that allow us to evaluate this wealth and get a sufficient idea of the development of art as a whole, without delving into details, more interesting to specialists than ordinary mortals, are extremely rare. Therefore, the popularity of “art history” P.P. Gnedich is a phenomenal phenomenon, although it is quite explained.
The “History of the Arts” by P.P. Gnedich is the most famous book in Russia about the stages of the development of painting, sculpture, architecture and decorative art, a unique collection of images of all the best that was created by the great creators of different countries and peoples for the centuries -old history of human civilization.
