Arts and Humanities Through the Eras
Profiling milestones and movements in the arts, literature, music and religion from a specific period, each volume in this set helps students and researchers understand the various disciplines of the humanities in relation to each other, as well as to history and culture.
Impressionism and Post-Impressionism
This book is a visual guide through the crucial moments in the history of art and the progression of the 19th-century to modernity.

Art Nouveau spans all forms of expression – including design, painting and architecture – and covers artists such as Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Antoni Gaudí, Jan Toorop, and William Morris.
Expressionism
The book examines the developments of Expressionism and its key works, highlighting the often intensely subjective imagery and the aspirations and conflicts from which it emerged while focusing precisely on the artists of the movement.
Pop Art and Design
Confronting the all-pervasive'high art / low culture'divide, Pop Art and Design brings a fresh understanding of visual culture during the vibrant 1950s and 60s.
Art in World History
This book covers art from the Paleolithic period and the millennium-long heyday of porcelain to performance art of the postmodernist world, exploring the origins of art making and the case for including visual studies in world history.
