The classic Gombrich text, old fashioned, and a bit rambling, but all-in-all well worth the price.


4 out of 5 stars If you are a thoughtful visual artist, buy this!   January 18, 2002

Even though the book is old, and the language scientific, there are many clues here for the interrogative artist. With a focus on history and the evolving of imagery, we are left with a greater understanding of the illustrators task. A truly fun read, attempting to explain why people perceive and interpret as they do.
