In each period of history, in every country, artists have been inspired by emotion and relationships. They have created works that show every type of emotion, from fear and sadness, to madness, joy, and love. Artists have explored the relationships within families, between lovers, or between individuals and the world around them. This book explains how art styles have developed through time, and how artists' techniques add to our understanding of their work. Emotion is captured in a wide range of media, including photography, painting, sculpture, posters, textiles, and film. The information to help interpret works of art and understand the time in history in which they were created are included in this book..
