This heavily illustrated volume reveals the always interesting and often surprising cross-influences and connections among 50 of the most important painters in European and American art. Handsome and enlightening spreads present "trees of influence," each of which focuses on a major artist or significant school of art. Included are time lines, reproductions of paintings, and capsule analyses of the works being discussed. Includes contributions from Dennis Weller, the North Carolina Museum of Art's curator of Northern European Art.
