FROM GIOTTO TO CÉZANNE
A Concise Hoistory of Painting

Michael Levey

  • "Outstanding . . .
    accurate, free from prejudice, always neat, often stimulating. No better introduction to Western painting has ever been produced."
    The Sunday Times

  • "Combining serious scholarship with a presentation simple enough to interest the general reader and employing a standard of reproduction good enough to make the result both an intellectual and an aesthetic pleasure."
                                         —The Burlington Magazine

  • "Clarity, sensibility, catholic sympathies, a sure instinct for what is truly significant, are all to be found here in plenty." —The Connoisseur

  • "His clarity of thought, elegance of style and utter rightness in the way he presents his material show how this kind of book ought to be written."
    The Times Literary Supplement

  • "A triumph in terms of lucid condensation."
                                         —Arts Review
