    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Drawn from the unpublished lectures and notes of one of the modern giants of art history, this book presents the late Rudolf Wittkower's thoughts about the relation between European and non-European civilizations. In a series of stimulating and speculative essays, Wittkower considers the interrelationship between the East and the West from ancient to modern times. He shows the variety and compatability of Eastern and Western motifs, styles, and iconography. The book is comprehensive in scope, with painting, sculpture, architecture, and the decorative arts included in this broad examination of the artistic links between East and West.
