From Émile Mâle’s magisterial study of thirteenth-century\nFrench art, first published in 1898, to Hans Belting’s provocative Likeness and\nPresence: A History of the Image before the Era of Art, the book provides a concise and\ninsightful overview of the history of art, told through its most enduring literature.\nEach of the essays looks at the impact of a single major book of art history,\nmapping the intellectual development of the writer under review, setting out the\npremises and argument of the book, considering its position within the broader\nfield of art history, and analyzing its significance in the context of both its initial\nreception and its afterlife. An introduction by John-Paul Stonard explores how\nart history has been forged by outstanding contributions to scholarship, and by\nthe dialogues and ruptures between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Shone\u003c\/b\u003e has been Editor of the Burlington Magazine since 2003 and is the author of several books on nineteenth- and twentieth-century art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn-Paul Stonard\u003c\/b\u003e, until recently a Senior Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, is an independent art historian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46553809977505,"sku":"BBSNIJ9780500238950","price":37.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9780500238950.jpg?v=1781744152","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/the-books-that-shaped-art-history-hardcover-by-richard-shone-john-paul-stonard","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
