Rococo to Revolution

Michael Levey, former Director of the National Gallery in London, traces the major trends of European painting in the eighteenth century, taking as his theme the exciting evolution—and revolution—that took place in art from Watteau's birth to the death of Goya.

"An art book that can be given with pride and received with pleasure . . . Watteau, Tiepolo, David, and Goya are the dominant names in this attractive volume, but a host of lesser figures give variety and interest to its pages."
