THE WORLD OF ARTS
World of Art (formerly known as The World of Art Library) is a long established series of pocket-sized art books from the British publisher Thames & Hudson, comprising over 300 titles as of 2021. The books are typically around 200 pages, but heavily illustrated. Unlike some concise or popular art books, the layout is traditional with text and pictures often on the same page, but segregated. The series was launched in 1958, and over 300 titles have been published in all; according to Christopher Frayling, former Principal of the Royal College of Art, "there are paint-stained copies in every art school in the land".
The World of Art series treats all subjects concerning the arts, but mostly art history, ranging from prehistoric cave art to contemporary art, from Graeco-Roman and Viking art to Central Asian and Japanese art, from academic art to outsider art. Perhaps the most classic book in the series is A Concise History of Painting: From Giotto to Cézanne by Michael Levey (of the National Gallery in London), originally published in 1962 (ISBN 0-500-20024-6). This gives an authoritative introduction to European art history from the early use of perspective in Italy to the start of modern art at the beginning of the 20th century.
Other authors include: John Boardman, Herbert Read, Hans Richter, Edward Lucie-Smith, Philip Rawson, David Talbot Rice, Peter Murray and Linda Murray, Germain Bazin, and Griselda Pollock.

San'at olami (ilgari.nomi bilan tanilgan badiiy Kutubxona dunyosi) ning uzoq tashkil etilgan seriyasidir cho'ntak-o'lchamdagi badiiy kitoblar Britaniya noshiri Temza va Xadson, 300 dan ortiq nomlardan iborat 2021. Kitoblar odatda 200 sahifa atrofida, ammo juda tasvirlangan. Ba'zi ixcham yoki ommabop badiiy kitoblardan farqli o'laroq, maket an'anaviy bo'lib, matn va rasmlar ko'pincha bitta sahifada joylashgan, ammo ajratilgan. Seriya 1958 yilda boshlangan va 300 dan ortiq nomlar nashr etilgan; Qirollik san'at kollejining sobiq direktori Kristofer Fraylingning so'zlariga ko'ra,"er yuzidagi har bir san'at maktabida bo'yalgan nusxalari bor".

San'at olami seriyasi san'atga oid barcha mavzularni, lekin asosan san'at tarixini o'rganadi tarixdan oldingi g'or san'ati ga zamonaviy san'at, dan Greko-Rim va Viking san'ati ga Markaziy Osiyo va Yaponiya san'ati, dan akademik san'at ga begona san'at. Ehtimol, seriyadagi eng klassik kitob-bu rasmning qisqacha tarixi: Giottodan C gacha, Maykl Levey tomonidan (Londondagi Milliy galereyadan), dastlab 1962 yilda nashr etilgan (ISBN 0-500-20024-6). Bu Evropa san'at tarixiga Italiyada istiqboldan erta foydalanishdan 20-asr boshlarida zamonaviy san'atning boshlanishiga qadar nufuzli kirish imkonini beradi.
