Artist, critic and writer Matthew Collings explores the concept of beauty in art. Is beauty only in the eye of the beholder, or is there something more universal we can say about it? Collings chose ten of what he considers to be the most indisputably beautiful artworks ever created, from prehistoric cave art via the masterpieces of the Renaissance to the cutting edge of hi-tech contemporary design, inspiring some big questions about why art matters to us. His visually sumptuous exploration illustrates each of the timeless principles he believes underpins and explains the rush of pleasure we get from beautiful art.
