The Story of Paintings: A History of Art for Children

Mick Manning

From prehistoric cave art to graffiti, this beautiful compendium introduces children to the world of paintings.

Get ready to feast your eyes on an exhibition of fantastic art! Kids can time-travel through the centuries and learn all about 39 paintings, from a galloping horse drawn in the Lascaux Caves during the Stone Age, to Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus and Velazquez’s Las Meninas, to masterpieces by Dali, Picasso, Kahlo, and Basquiat. Each spread showcases a different painting, along with a profile of the artist, kid-friendly cartoons, and fun prompts that encourage children to ask questions (like, What do you think Mona Lisa is smiling about? ) and spot details in each work.
