30,000 Years of Art: The Story of Human Creativity across Time and Space

An accessible, comprehensive, freshly-updated celebration of the vast range of human artistry from 28,000 BC to today

In this new edition of Phaidon's groundbreaking book in a compact, mini-format, 30,000 Years of Art reveals the huge diversity – or in many cases, the similarity – of artistic achievements around the globe.

Images of more than 600 works from all periods and regions are arranged in chronological order, each with a short text that puts the work in critical context and explains its contribution to the development of art history.
