This Little History introduces us to extraordinary anonymous creations such as the Terracotta Army, Renaissance masters like Donatello and Michelangelo, and modern trailblazers like Frida Kahlo, Barbara Hepworth and Yayoi Kusama."-- Publisher Art History Artists History A little history of ddc B 203370 203370 0 0 KM G 2026-03-16 0 709 MUL A01908901 2026-03-16 12:17:13 B 0 0 BB G 2026-03-16 0 709 MUL A01908903 2026-03-16 12:17:13 B
