In this book, terms that have prevailed for all artistic movements and currents, both old and contemporary, are included in a concise and crucial way, in alphabetical order.

The work offers the opportunity for students, mainly of Art History, but also for every art lover, to learn and understand the trends and techniques, the evolution of each artistic movement, the various artistic groups and schools, and the impact they had in their time.

In most cases, the creators, representatives of each movement, their work, and their presence in the events of their time are mentioned by name.

Rich color illustrations with indicative works embellish and document the text. Relevant bibliography accompanies the texts, while there are always corresponding references from lemma to lemma.
The original terminology of the terms is preserved, many of which are difficult or even impossible to translate into Greek. Terms in various languages (mainly English, French, German, and Italian) are mentioned at the beginning of each lemma.
