Histoire De L'art

New hardback edition

Ernst Gombrich was one of the greatest and most unconventional art historians of his time. He achieved fame and renown in three different spheres: as a scholar, as an art populariser and as a pioneer in the application of the psychology of perception to the study of art.

For more than 70 years, his History of Art has been one of the most famous books on art and a worldwide bestseller, with more than 8 million copies sold. This masterpiece of clarity and concision, translated into over 30 languages, provides the perfect introduction to the whole subject, from cave paintings to the art of today.
