Summary

Ever dream about learning directly from the most famous artists throughout history?

Most art history books just go over dates and major style changes, without letting the artists speak for themselves. In For Artists by Artists, you will learn directly from the top 40 of some of the most famous artists in the world. You will see how they thought about art, nature, truth, beauty, work, other artists, and God. You will journey through the last 750 years of art history in chronological order, seeing the evolution of how painters taught and thought over time.

You will see quotations representing all of the major art movements from the 13th through 19th centuries, including:

  • Italian and Northern Renaissance
  • Baroque
  • Rococo
  • French Academic
  • Realism
  • Romanticism
  • French Impressionism
  • American Impressionism
  • Golden-Age Illustration
  • Post-Impressionism

With a short bio of each artist preceding their quotations, you will meet or reacquaint yourself with the lives and words of 40 of the greatest painters of all time. If you want to expand your mind and learn from the greatest of all time, purchase For Artists by Artists for yourself or as a gift now.

A real buff now

This book has been a great listen, and would be for anyone interested in Art! It was like a journey through time with some fascinating and memorable quotes from Artists, the author clearly knows a lot! This book was easy to listen to and educational, I have learned quite a bit from this audiobook, so I can only recommend you give it a go too!
