This book contains all of Smarthistory’s content for Italian art in the 1400s.
This is one of the primary online resources for art history. It can be assigned as a text or used modularly. There are over 1800 essays and videos with most art historical periods covered. There are no dedicated segments on materials, techniques, and media, however. These elements are sometimes covered as part of the discussion on discrete objects. The information and images are very good and are often linked to Khan Academy videos. Dr. Beth Harris and Dr. Steven Zucker are contributors and presences on many videos.
Volume 1 contains all of Smarthistory’s content for numbers 1-47 (Global Prehistory and the Ancient Mediterranean) Reviewer’s note: It is unfortunate that this textbook is branded as AP, as the level is appropriate for college learners, but the label might be off-putting. (Hopefully the forthcoming Reframing Art History will solve this problem.) Volume 1 covers material from the Paleolithic through Late Antiquity; to get through the Gothic period, instructors would need to add Smarthistory Guide to AP® Art History, Volume 2 (Early Europe, Colonial Americas), which picks up where Volume 1 leaves off and extends through Hogarth’s Marriage a la Mode.

“An OER text to cover world art on a timeline from prehistoric to modern times with an emphasis on female artists.”Reviewer’s note: this text focuses much more on a chronological, art historical approach than other texts that divide the course into thirds, with the first third covering visual elements and principles of design, the second third covering two- and three-dimensional media, and only the final third giving a brief overview of art history.
