Publishers Weekly</p> <p>Interested in art but feel under-informed? Curious but afraid you might not "get" it?

This book twelve chapters teach readers about art, the art trade, and art history in a thorough (though concise) fashion.</p> <p>Each chapter is linked to one notable masterpiece, with references to others, giving readers a fixed, digestible number of objects that they will get to know in depth, and which they can use as a lens to understand the thousands of other, related objects that they might encounter in the future.</p> <p>Museums can be daunting, and art presents a strange new language, one that certainly intrigues but is often intimidating and foreign. This book, written by one of the world's best-known art historians uses entertaining stories to break down intimidating barriers and invites readers of all ages for a one-stop immersion into art.</p>.
