Opinionated Guide to British Art

What's so great about a Hogarth? Why should we care about a shark in a tank? And does it matter that they are both British artworks? This uncompromising, pithy book will tell you everything you need to know (and nothing that you don't) about 60 of the best, most interesting, provocative and iconic British artworks from the beginning of recorded time to the present day. Witty opinion is set alongside faithful colour reproductions in an elegant hardback that will persuade anyone that British Art is meaningful.
