Hi, I'm Christopher P Jones, an art writer and author with a passion for uncovering the stories behind great works of art. I’m the author of How to Read Paintings and Great Paintings Explained.
As a writer on art history and culture, my aim is to help people to gain more from looking at art by delving deep into individual works and exploring the stories behind them.
I completed my MA in Art History, which instigated a fascinated with how ideas shift across time, how interpretations evolve, and how art continues to challenge, comfort or provoke us. What does art do for us — as makers and as viewers? That question sits at the heart of much of my work.
