Welcome to the world of the twenty greatest artists who taught people to view the familiar and every day in ways that were new, revolutionary and never imagined before. From the Old Masters of perspective and chiaroscuro, like Vermeer and Da Vinci, to innovators and experimenters of form, line and material, like Monet and Amrita Sher-Gil, these artists have shown that when it comes to art, there are no limitations on what is beautiful or evocative. This book explores the lives—at times tragic and misunderstood; at times exuberant and scandalous—of these great art pioneers, candidly describing the highs and lows each went through. It also traces influential artistic movements down the ages and how they impacted the broader world of politics, culture and history. 20 Greatest Artists offers a peek into the colourful lives of great artists and their works of art.
