This handy pocket-sized dictionary will help anyone interested in Western art history learn how to pronounce both the complicated and the deceptively \"easy\" names of artists, which often come from languages difficult for the English-speaking reader to wrap his or her tongue around.

This edition has been extensively updated and redesigned, with thousands of new names added, and with an eye to fully representing male and female artists from all periods and cultures encompassed by Western art. The phonetic pronunciations of the artists names are accompanied by birth and death dates plus nationality and\/or school, and the primary media in which they work(ed).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brand: Bulfinch Pr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945145036853,"sku":"ByrdShop_082122025X","price":60.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780821220252_aab57310-f74f-429f-9bf7-45522cd934d6.jpg?v=1778926727","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/pronunciation-dictionary-of-artists-names-9780821220252","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
