Summary:
"In this clear and concise book, Dana Arnold presents an
introduction
to the issues, debates, and artefacts that make up the discipline of
art
history
. Using a wide range of images, from Easter Island statues to Constable's The Cornfield, the author shows how the artworks themselves can be the starting point for how we 'read'
art
history
, and suggests a diversity of ways through which we can enjoy, think about, and understand
art
." "With a glossary of technical terms, and list of useful Web site addresses, this is an invaluable and accessible
introduction
to a fascinating subject."--Jacket.
