I was 15 when I read The Story of Art and like millions since, I felt I had been given a map of a great country, and with it the confidence to explore further without fear of being overwhelmed.'?Neil MacGregor, former Director of the National Gallery, London, 1995 'Almost as well known as the Mona Lisa, Sir ErnstGombrich's The Story of Art unites learning and pleasure.'?Pierre Rosenberg, Président-Directeur, Musée du Louvre, Paris 'More people. have been introduced to the world of fine art, in the last 45 years, though Ernst Gombrich's The Story of Art than through any other single book.'?Christopher Frayling, Professor of Cultural History, Royal College of Art, London 'The country's bestselling book on art, never out of print, still in demand (and not just by students) and one of the few 'gift books' that actually gets read.

I am surprised it's not yet been placed in hotels on the bedside table along with Gideon's Bible since Gombrich is as authoritative as the voice of God. The book has always been a pleasure to read and handle, the colour plates, now with many new additions, are excellent and the text is clear and straightforward, devoid of both pedantry and academic tedium.'?The Birmingham Post 'As a humane, uncomplicated but unpatronising account of art from prehistoric cave daubs to twentieth-century splurges, Gombrich's Story of Art is just what its title promises: more of a story than a work of reference, yet that as well.'?Business Weekly 'A wise and wide-ranging introduction to art history that will last and last.'?The List 'Lucid and endlessly informative.'?The Good Book Guide 'His populist approach comes from his childhood in Vienna, where art was for everyone, not just for stuffed shirts.'?The Mail on Sunday 'Thinking about building your dream library and brightening your coffee table with eye-candy and conv.
