Description
A marvellously exciting search by one of this country's great art historians into the sources and development of Western Civilisation.
Kenneth Clark takes us from the fall of the Roman Empire and Iona in the ninth century to France in the twelfth, from Florence to Urbino, from Germany to Rome, England, Holland and America. Against these historical backgrounds he highlights works of genius, in architecture, sculpture and painting, in philosophy, poetry and music, in science and engineering. - from Amzon
