Major periods are reviewed in separate chapters, each containing historical background, artistic innovation, major artists and movements, key works test takers should know, and relevant vocabulary.

Every work of art discussed is illustrated in the text with an adjoining bulleted list of its characteristics. A diagnostic exam precedes the chapters surveying art history, and two full-length AP practice exams are presented at the end of the book with answer keys, diagnostic charts, answer explanations, and model essay responses. The text is profusely illustrated and a glossary of important terms is provided The optional CD-ROM presents two additional practice tests with answers and automatic scoring.
