Summary
The authors apply the different theories used in art history to one painting, Picasso's Les demoiselles d'Avignon, and use this as a text for teaching. This provides a lively and stimulating introduction to methodological debates within the subject and offers a lucid account of approaches from Hegel to post-colonialism by explaining the philosophical and political assumptions behind each approach, using examples. The reader also gains a sense of art history's own history as a discipline, from its emergence in the late eighteenth century to contemporary times.
