Abstract
Professor Amanda Vickery escorts us on an unprecedented tour through four centuries of Western art. She journeys from Renaissance Italy to the French Revolution and beyond, covering everything from Dutch genre paintings to French impressionism and American modern art. Along the way, she acquaints us with extraordinary artists including Artemisia Gentileschi, Judith Leyster, Angelica Kauffmann, Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun, Berthe Morisot, Georgia O'Keeffe, and many more. From the paintings we see in museums to the clothes we wear and the way we decorate our homes, their influence still resonates all around us.

I have shown the first episode (Renaissance and Baroque artists) several times to my students, and find it lively, fun, and engages them. I have not reviewed the second episode (Prehistoric artists, Venuses and such) nor the third, yet.
