A cultural and social history of art collecting, art history, and the art market In The Rare Art Traditions, Joseph Alsop offers a wide-ranging cultural and social history of art collecting, art history, and the art market. He argues that art collecting is the basic element in a remarkably complex and historically rare behavioral system, which includes the historical study of art, the market for buying and selling art, museums, forgery, and the astonishing prices commanded by some works of art. The Rare Art Traditions tells the story of three important traditions of art collecting: the classical tradition that began in Greece, the Chinese tradition, and the Western tradition. The result is a major original contribution to art history.

Excerpt from A Text-Book of the History of Painting The object of this series of text-books is to provide concise teachable histories of art for class-room use in schools and colleges. The limited time given to the study of art in the average educational institution has not only dictated the condensed style of the volumes, but has lim ited their scope of matter to the general features of art history. Archaeological discussions on special subjects and aesthetic theories have been avoided. The main facts of history as settled by the best authorities are given. If the reader choose to enter into particulars the bibliography cited at the head of each chapter will be found helpful. Illustrations have been introduced as sight-help to the text, and, to avoid repetition, abbreviations have been used wherever practicable. The enumeration of the principal extant works of an artist, school, or period, and where they may be found, which follows each chapter, may be service able not only as a summary of individual or school achieve ment, but for reference by travelling students in Europe.

An Elementary History of Art: Architecture, Sculpture, Painting by N. D'Anvers was originally created for the sole purpose of expanding the fine art education of the people of America and England. Faced with her personal experience of standing by while "great ignorance prevailed amongst the general public as to the technical and intellectual history of Architecture, Sculpture, and Painting," D'Anvers became resolute in her determination to advance cultural literacy. This perceived flaw in fine art education compelled her to create a book intended to expand on the subject of art and illuminate her readers' minds. The popularity of D'Anvers book is obvious not only in the multitude of people familiar with it but also with the number of reprints/editions the general public have requested over time. A wonderful resource for anyone interested in art and art history, this book presents a well-spring of information to enlighten even a novice art enthusiast. The book contains articles for a wide variety of subjects and presents a glossary of terms early into the text to prepare readers for terminology they will come across in the text. The book also hosts a wonderful array of illustrations to help further the reader's understanding of art and increase their cultural literacy. An Elementary History of Art: Architecture, Sculpture, Painting eagerly encompasses N. D'Anvers goal of educating the public on all things art. D'Anvers single-handedly achieved her goal to emphasize the importance of art in culture with this publication, a feat not easily obtained but one that has helped to promote the education and preservation of art. This book is a wonderful addition to any library intended for readers interested in art, art history, architecture, and education.
