A timeless classic
Amazing that this was first published in 1950. I studied it as an art student in the 60's...and now recommended it to a pupil of mine. Lovely pull out illustrations in the later editions. Ditto all in colour.Read full review...

Art Story.
An excellent starter book for History of Art courses. Appeals to the young! The story is comprehensive and starts 7000 years ago and is continued to the present. The book has been revised, too, several times since 1950, and still retains a freshness. Gombrich deserves his status in this particular genre.Read full review...
Awesome book. Very good value for money.
Bought this book because it is one off the most famous books on art and for 50 years has remained unrivalled as an introduction to the whole subject of art from cave painitings to contemporary art. Author,Prof Gombrich was a true master.Read full review...
A real classic
I used this book for A level, then again for my degree, but I continue to enjoy it for pleasure.It is an absolute classic, which has been updated regularly.
a must for all who enjoy art.
