EH Gombrich’s The Story of Art is a beautiful book, and has become a well-trodden and much-loved path for people wanting a solid introduction to a very overwhelming world.

The classic and probably still the best introduction and overview. Published in 1950 it was criticized for omission of international and female artists and contemporary art. That's a plus! Get the latest edition. Mine has great fold-out illustrations.

For a good introduction, read E.H. Gombrich's The Story of Art.
