The Smaller Story of Art

The Story of Art by EH Gombrich is one of the most accessible books ever written on the visual arts. Its popularity has ensured that it’s been in print since 1950 and has, to date, sold over seven million copies worldwide. It’s also been a mainstay title for Phaidon, the book’s publishers, who are about to release a new “pocket edition” boasting a complete redesign of the original book.
