LIST OF ARTWORKS:Please keep in mind that it is impossible to include a complete summary of any culture, and these are not meant to be repre-sentative of the culture as a whole or even to be considered as “the best” artworks from the culture. Inevitably, there will be important and wonderful works of art that are not mentioned here. This list is a jumping off point to get you started, but is by no means comprehensive. These artworks were chosen because they are good ones to discuss with children.
