This comprehensive survey lays out in chronological progression the lives and works of the artists whose masterpieces make up the history of European painting, from the late Gothic masters of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries to the Cubists and Surrealists of the early twentieth century, to the postmodernists of our own day. In the work of these artists we can observe the great movements of art history - the dawn of the Renaissance, the birth of Realism, and the rise of abstraction. The artists are represented by full-color illustrations of their most important and characteristic paintings, accompanied by concise, authoritative discussions of their life and work.
David Galenson's work on the history of art is a unique fusion of econometrics and cultural analysis that is unprecedented in the literature on creativity in any discipline, whether economics, psychology, literary studies or art history.

"Ah ! la vie ! la vie !" Tel fut le credo de Toulouse-Lautrec, ce nabot génial - et encore trop méconnu malgré sa gloire - qui découvrit la, publicité moderne avec ses affiches, inventa de nouvelles techniques picturales, pour promener sa "caméra-pinceau" aux courses, au music-hall, dans les bordels, chez les stars de son temps, images qui constituent sa "Comédie humaine" à la Balzac et dont, à des titres divers, un Picasso ou un Matisse retiendront les enseignements.
