Greetings!

I'm looking for a certain book to get my girlfriend for Christmas.
It's a book she remembers from years ago called "Jensen's History
of Art" or something like that. If anyone knows of this book
could you please e-mail me whatever info you might have. I'm not
even sure if the title is correct. If this book sounds familiar
and you have any helpful info, let me know. Thanx in advance!

That's H.W. Janson who wrote the book (though I think later
editions were revised by others). It was for long the "Samuelson"
of art history texts, that is, the standard by which all others
were measured. But then someone noticed that father Janson
entirely ignored daughter artists. . . .
