brief introduction

This book generally describes the development process from the earliest cave painting to today's experimental art, and makes it clear that art history is "a history in which various traditions are constantly changing in a roundabout way, and every work in this history not only reviews the past, but also leads to the future".

The Story of Art is one of the most famous and popular art books.

In April 2020, it was listed in the Reading Guidance Catalogue for Primary and Secondary School Students (2020 Edition) by the Development Center of Basic Education Curriculum and Textbooks of the Ministry of Education.
