As an authoritative reference work, this Encyclopedia covers all aspects of visual art from its earliest beginnings in ancient times, to the glorious Renaissance, onto realism and romanticism and even contemporary Australian art. (Don't miss Dame Edna Everage by John Brack - she's a vision in pink!)
