[Andre O. bueno]

This is a very interesting book. Even though it doesn't go deep, it presents a general view of the story of painting since Da Vinci, Michaelangelo till nowadays modern art. Besides, it has amazing painting all over it =P

I learned a lot by reading this book and, because of that, I recommend it!
