100 Artists Who Shaped World History

---

Bluewood Books is proud to add to its popular 100 Series line of books with the publication of 100 Artists Who Shaped World History. The title provides an entertaining and informative look at the lives of the visual artists who challenged traditional means of expression to broaden human perception. Through the mediums of painting, sculpting, and photography, these artists were storytellers of the society they perceived or one they wished to create.

Jam-packed with interesting facts and wonderfully illustrated, the lives of the 100 men and women, whose art transcended their own mortality, are revealed through their escapades with official dignitaries, their travels and hobbies, their experiments in living for the sake of art, and more. Included are notary artists such as Leonardo da Vinci who performed autopsies to gain a preliminary knowledge of the human body and the circulatory system, to the careers of the artists before they could claim the title, such as Vincent van Gogh's interim as an evangelist minister.
