I enjoyed reading this article. I learned Art History with
Gardner....but am familiar with the Janson book, too. NY Times is free
- you get three Arts articles everyday.
Revising Art History's Big Book: Who's In and Who Comes Out?
By RANDY KENNEDY
The first thoroughly revised version of "Janson's History of Art" will
undoubtedly surprise many of the book's loyalists.
Whistler's Mother is not in the new edition - a much more striking
Whistler work has been substituted.
