624 pp., illus., bib. notes, index; 24 cm. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Slightly shopworn, with remainder mark on flyleaf. "Sir Ernst Gombrich was one of the greatest and least conventional art historians of his age, achieving fame and distinction in three separate spheres: as a scholar, as a popularizer of art, and as a pioneer of the application of the psychology of perception to the study of art. His best-known book, The Story of Art, first published fifty years ago and now in its sixteenth edition, is one of the most influential books ever written about art. This volume presents an accessible selection of Professor Gombrich's best and most characteristic writing, and introduces the general reader to his ideas and arguments on many fundamental questions, including the nature of representation, the psychology of perception, the interpretation of images, the problems of theory and method, the idea of progress, and symbolism and meaning in art. Professor Gombrich's writings include three major narrative works-The Story of Art, Art and Illusion and The Sense of Order-and eleven volumes of collected essays and reviews. This anthology brings together a selection from all these books and in addition six pieces that have not previously been published by Phaidon. It thus introduces the reader to the whole range of Gombrich's thought. Richard Woodfield writes a general introduction, and provides notes and guides to further reading. / Gombrich was born in Vienna in 1909 and died in London in November 2001. He came to London in 1936 to work at the Warburg Institute, where he eventually became director from 1959 until his retirement in 1976. He won numerous international honours, including a knighthood, the Order of Merit and the Goethe, Hegel and Erasmus prizes. Gifted with a powerful mind and prodigious memory, he was also an outstanding communicator, with a clear and forceful prose style. His works are models of good art-historical writing, and reflect his humanism and his deep and abiding concern with the standards and values of our cultural heritage. -Publisher.
