"History of Illustration covers image-making and print history from around the world, spanning from the ancient to the postmodern. Compiled by an international team of illustration historians, practitioners, and educators, this exploration of the topic presents nearly 900 color images to survey and critically analyze the communicative aspects of sacred, editorial, literary, fashion, medical, advertising, children's book, sequential, and other kinds of illustration. Organized both chronologically and thematically, this book empowers understanding of the technical and artistic qualities, social and cultural relevance, and controversies of these media images in our lives."--Back cover.
