This is a great book on art history ....though now somewhat dated. I'm now in the position of having to downsize my library and this book is one of the casualties. Pity but I won't be using it. I give it two stars. ( ) La historia del arte es uno de los libros dedicados al arte más famosos y populares nunca escritos y ha sido un best-seller durante medio siglo. Durante cinco décadas no ha tenido ningún rival como introducción al arte en su totalidad, abarcando desde las pinturas rupestres primitivas hasta el arte experimental contemporáneo. Atraídos por la claridad y simplicidad de su narrativa, lectores de todas las edades y condiciones han encontrado en el profesor Gombrich al auténtico maestro, que combina el conocimiento y sabiduría con un don único para comunicar su profundo amor por el arte. La historia del arte debe su amplia difusión a lo directo y espontáneo de su estilo, así como a la clara exposición del autor. Este libro siempre ha sido admirado por dos cualidades: es un placer de leer y un placer de manejar, combina un texto que fluye suavemente con un diseño claro, simple y de accesible formato. Incredibile come Gombrich riesca a far scorrere circa 25 secoli di arte con tanta semplicità e capacità narrativa. È una storia, del resto, e G. ne è grande narratore. Il testo - specialmente in questa edizione con illustrazioni grandi e a colori - è un'ottima introduzione che invoca approfondimenti di ogni genere. Gombrich procede con passi da gigante e quindi in mezzo ci si perde, come è ovvio per una disamina sintetica, molto. Ma l'essenziale c'è tutto e alcune osservazioni di G. sono a tutti gli effetti illuminanti. Solo un po' più debole la parte finale, ma come nota anche G. la storia ha bisogno di distanza per essere ben descritta. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"The Story of Art is one of the most famous and popular books on art ever published. For 45 years it has remained unrivalled as an introduction to the whole subject, from the earliest cave paintings to the experimental art of today. Readers of all ages and backgrounds throughout the world have found in Professor Gombrich a true master, who combines knowledge and wisdom with a unique gift for communicating directly his own deep love of the works of art he describes." "The Story of Art owes its lasting popularity to the directness and simplicity of the writing, and also the author's skill in presenting a clear narrative. He describes his aim as 'to bring some intelligible order into the wealth of names, periods and styles which crowd the pages of more ambitious works', and using his insight into the psychology of the visual arts, he makes us see the history of art as 'a continuous weaving and changing of traditions in which each work refers to the past and points to the future', 'a living chain that still links our own time with the Pyramid age'. In its new format, the 16th edition of this classic work is set to continue its triumphant progress for future generations and to remain the first choice for all newcomers to art."--Jacket.
