About
World Art Timeline is a visual journey through art traditions, arranged side by side across thousands of years.
Scroll through time to see movements emerge, evolve and disappear, while other traditions take entirely different paths.
Period dates, historical context and artist information were researched from Wikipedia and related reference sources. Artwork is sourced primarily from Wikimedia Commons and other public-domain collections.
The history of art is more complicated than a single timeline. If you have a question, correction or suggestion, please get in touch:
