The book aims to provide accessible insights into the great old masters of painting from various periods and regions, primarily focusing on their contributions to the art world rather than offering an exhaustive art historical analysis. It serves as a resource for both schools and individuals interested in enhancing their understanding of classical paintings. At the start of the book, Tytler expresses her intent to engage readers by explaining the significance of art and the common human inclination to appreciate visual representation. She highlights the early developments in Italian art and introduces pivotal figures like Giotto, emphasizing their impact on the evolution of painting through personal anecdotes and historical background. The introduction suggests that Tytler will discuss the progression of painting styles, technical challenges faced by early artists, and the cultural contexts in which these masters worked, aiming to create an appreciation for the artistry and storytelling behind each piece.
