If you are looking for something which is a general introduction that doesn't go into overwhelming detail, I could recommend the book 50 Paintings You Should Know. However, since that includes both religious art and modern art which you wouldn't likely appreciate, it might be better for you to find a good book on a specific artist whose work you enjoy, and go from there.
I don't mind learning about modern art, I just generally don't find any of it all that compelling. Learning is fun though
