| Summary/Abstract |
Examine the Baroque style which emerged in Italy in about 1600 and later spread to most of Europe. Followed by Neoclassicism reflecting a renewed interest in classical antiquity as a reaction to the ornate and dramatic style characteristics of the Baroque and Rococo periods. The Encyclopedia of Art for Young People is an eight-volume set, arranged chronologically, that celebrates the rich history of art in an appealing and accessible format. Using full-colour reproductions of well-known masterpieces and providing in-depth coverage of the life and times of pivotal artists, this colourful new work is a solid introductory reference.
