Fascinating art explainer, suitable for all ages.

An interesting broad look at a cross section of Art history, Artists and Art styles. It is a Usborne book aimed at young audiences so it lacks depth but it provides enough scope to inform and give potential art lovers multiple directions to explore.

Pretty basic, but I could extract some lessons from there. The part with the art gallery was the most interesting because I never actually thought about how hard it is to work in an art gallery.
