Art History Combined Volume Stokstad 4th Edition is simply wonderful. It is indeed physically ponderous (this 2nd edition is one very, very large book, not two slipcased books as shown in some illustrations). However, its content easily compensates for its considerable bulk. All historical periods of art history are chronicled, with copious illustrations well-produced and nearly all in color. The text is incisive and easy to follow, yet never boring.
I recommend Art History Combined Volume Stokstad 4th Edition to any and all art lovers, whether beginners, advanced students, or just those who desire a comprehensive reference for library or home use. I personally consider this publication a better choice than the otherwise excellent Janson "History of Art" for most readers-- the writing is just more user-friendly, in my opinion (and the content is more inclusive, especially regarding non-Western art).

Art History Stokstad 4th Edition
I had to buy Art History Stokstad 4th Edition for an Art History course in college, and I loved it so much that I was considerng changing my major! Art History Stokstad 4th Edition is amazing.. it covers so much. I held on to it as long as I could but unfortunately I had to sell it for money. I absolutely must buy it back!
