Art and Man: Comparative Art Studies is a book written by Edwin Swift Balch and published in 1918. This book is an exploration of the relationship between art and human culture, providing a comparative analysis of various forms of art from different cultures around the world. Balch examines the ways in which art reflects the social, political, and economic conditions of the societies in which it is created, and how it can be used to understand these conditions. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of art and culture. Balch discusses topics such as the function of art in society, the role of art in religious and spiritual practices, and the influence of historical events on artistic expression. He also examines the differences between art from different cultures, including Western art, African art, and art from the Pacific Islands. Throughout the book, Balch emphasizes the importance of understanding art as a reflection of human culture and society. He argues that by studying art from different cultures, we can gain a deeper understanding of the world around us and the people who inhabit it. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of art and culture, and the ways in which art can be used to understand the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
