This book is an alphabetical guide to the greatest painters, photographers, and sculptors from the medieval period to the present day. Only here can you look side-by-side at Carracci and Cartier-Bresson, Duccio and Duchamp, Mondial and Monet, Warhol and Waterhouse.

Each artist is represented by a color reproduction of a characteristic work, along with information about the image and its creator.

The entries incorporate a comprehensive cross-reference system, and at the end, there is a glossary of technical terms, art movements, and an international directory of museums and galleries.

The ABC of Art is an unprecedented visual reference book that pays homage to our rich culture and now includes artists such as Lorna Simpson, Banksy, Murakami, and the Guerrilla Girls.
