This book helped me learn art history fast. It was comprehensive enough to give me the background knowledge I needed to pass the GACE art test.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A small but beautiful book
*by D***R on January 7, 2026*

It's a primer on art history. With lots of buzzwords and photos. But so, so helpful when you are trying to place a piece of art in its right era. And the photos are beautifully done.
