This volume documents the range of E.H. Gombrich's achievements, from his first article published in 1930 to a book review published in the "New York Review of Books" in January 2000. One of the most distinguished art historians of the 20th century, the book records the range and depth of his contribution to the study of art and culture. In chronological order, the volume lists all his books, articles, reviews, prefaces and other published pieces, giving each item a unique reference number. The documentation includes reprints, new editions and translations.
"Gombrich has done more than any other human being to draw people towards an enlightened understanding of art... Wearing his immense learning lightly, tackling abstract ideas without losing his readers in jargon, he has attracted a devoted following."The Sunday Times
