Brief History of Art Mug

How much does it cost to go to a Fine Arts college? $20,000 a year? $30,000? What would you say if we offered you a comparable education for less than $15? Interested? Then read on! The Brief History of Art Mug is a crash-course in the world's greatest artwork since the beginning of time. The 24 images on the mug represent the evolution of art over the millenia -- it begins with the Cave Paintings of Lascaux, through Da Vinci and Degas and Picasso, and all the way up to Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, and Jeff Koons. The bottom of the mug has detailed information on each of the works of art. So, not only does it give you a complete art history education, but you can also drink out of it. Try doing THAT with a diploma!

Title: History of Art on one mug
I gave this as a gift to my brother who teaches art history at a small university . He keeps it on his desk in his office and often carries it to class with him. I bought one for myself, too! Great art reproductions and a humorous gift.

Title: Brief History of Art Mug
I haven't tried liquids yet (after viewing the instructional video, I'm afraid I'll make a mistake and use it incorrectly), but it holds markers and a wooden Bender with style and without leaking.

Title: Fun for the artist
As soon as this gift made its way out of the box it was being fought over. Artists and art lovers alike will love it, giving them something to ponder in the morning besides the back of the cereal box.
