Gardner's Art Through The Ages

Gardner's Art Through the Ages is an American textbook on the history of art, with the 2004 edition by Fred Due south. Kleiner and Christin J. Mamiya. The 2001 edition was awarded both a McGuffey laurels for longevity^[one] and the "Texty" Award for current editions^[2] by the Text and Academic Authors Association. No other book has received both awards in the same yr.

The first edition published in 1926 was written by Helen Gardner. It, like all following editions, was organized chronologically beginning with "The Birth of Art" in the Upper Paleolithic and progressing in a mainly chronological sequence to the contemporary period.

Gardner's initial edition was alee of its fourth dimension in that along with the Western canon of European fine art, it examined the art of Bharat, Aboriginal America, Red china, and Nippon. This approach was maintained for the outset three editions that were all edited by Helen Gardner. The second edition was published in 1936 and the 3rd came out in 1948, a year after Gardner died. In 1959, the fourth edition was published under the editorship of Sumner McK. Crosby by the Department of the History of Fine art at Yale University. This edition introduced readers to a new term "non-European art." Information technology also moved abroad from Gardner'due south interest in cartoon comparisons between art from different parts of the world. In the Preface, Crosby states:

Although Miss Gardner'south organization of the Third Edition provided many opportunities for interesting comparisons and made it possible to study in adjacent capacity what was occurring in different parts of the world during more than or less the same historic periods, this organization often obscured the intrinsic qualities and especially the development of the unlike styles. Equally our tabular array of contents indicates, we take presented the arts of different periods and countries in a more normal order. The partition into Ancient, European, Non-European, and Modern Fine art and the group by periods and countries under these divisions will, we believe, provide a articulate and coherent chronological account of the history of art throughout the earth.

Sumner's arrangement continues to exist used in editions of Gardner'south. The volume has remained a required text for introductory classes in art history for American students into the 21st century.^{[iii] [4]}
