Beschreibung:
Holly Grothe Howard grew up in the United States and worked as a teacher and librarian before relocating to England in 1991. Jacqueline Cockburn is managing director of the travel company Art and Culture Andalucía, which runs residential courses on the art and culture of Southern Spain. A course leader at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and lecturer at Christie's Education, Cockburn is also the author of The Companion to Federico Garcia Lorca: Lorca's Drawings and Crossing Fields in Modern Spanish Culture: Gifts from the Poet to the Art Critic. Felicity Price-Smith is an artist, illustrator, and designer from East Sussex, UK.
A Taste of Art London takes readers on a stimulating journey around ten of the city's best galleries, exploring ten significant artworks from each location, and thus offering an insightful sampling of a hundred works of art. In short, this book works as a curated highlight reel of London's great galleries, and it acts as the ultimate antidote to museum fatigue in a city bursting with exceptional art. The paintings, sculptures, and objects selected from each gallery focus on a different time period in the history of Western Art, beginning with the Roman Britain era at the British Museum and ending with a look at later pieces displayed at the prestigious Royal Academy of Arts.
