SERIES: Art and Man, Book II, is the second of a series of three books on the history of art published by Holt, Rinehart and Winston of Canada Limited. EXCERPT: INTRODUCTION The period in the history of art covered in this book is still the best known and most admired by the majority of people and especially by those who are critical of modern art. It abounds in names of famous artists and their works seem to portray the "real" world, in all its various aspects, with beauty and dignity. Many people find that Renaissance and Baroque art are more "natural" and "true to life" than that of the preceding or following centuries with the exception of that of Greece and Rome. But they forget that art is never a mirror or a copy of nature. It is the result of a creative act of an artist who uses what he sees in his environment and selects from it material to form an image in his mind which best expresses his thoughts and feelings . . .
