When I was searching for a good book on the introduction in art, this book kept popping up and now I know why, the language is simple and understandable, the pictures of artwork are good quality, the paper in the front section is thin, and I like that, and the paper in the back section with the images on it, are smooth and shiny. I recommend this book to anyone that loves art, and books.
