How Art Is Made. The Craft Behind The Masterpieces

How Art Is Made looks at renowned works of art from across the centuries and around the globe and asks the intriguingly simple question ? how were these works actually made?

Divided into two sections ? materials and methods ? each chapter showcases a single work of art which demonstrates the mastery and innovative use of a single material or method, from oil paint, pastel and pencil, to woodcut, litho and impasto. Each work is presented as the centerpiece of a capsule history, while comparative works are also included to help amplify our understanding.

The book enhances the experience of looking at great works of art and guides us to a deeper understanding of how they were created and why we regard them as so important.
