From those exquisite, primitive images of hunted beasts to today's conceptual art lies a rich history of artistic tradition and change. this book tells the story of what painting has meant to us, and how it's role has been reinvented over the centuries. In the crisp, unstuffy commentary on each of 150 landmark works, Christie's art expert Roy Bolton leads us through the development of painting until our own age, where painting as a painterly craft has been overtaken by a proliferation of new forms introduced by contemporary art. 512 Pages.
