Description
Greek Sculpture presents a chronological overview of the plastic and glyptic art forms in the ancient Greek world from the emergence of life-sized marble statuary at the end of the seventh century BC to the appropriation of Greek sculptural traditions by Rome in the first two centuries AD. Compares the evolution of Greek sculpture over the centuries to works of contemporaneous Mediterranean civilizationsEmphasizes looking closely at the stylistic features of Greek sculpture, illustrating these observations where possible with original works rather than copiesPlaces the remarkable progress of stylistic changes that took place in Greek sculpture within a broader social and historical contextFacilitates an understanding of why Greek monuments look the way they do and what ideas they were capable of expressingFocuses on the most recent interpretations of Greek sculptural works while considering the fragile and fragmentary evidence uncovered
User’s Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐More than half the book is written text. When there are pictures, they are usually relatively small, and in just black and white. The main reason sculpture exists is to be looked at by the human eyeball. The sculptors didn’t create their works just to be analyzed. Sad. Weird.
⭐I’m using this product for research about culture I’m a little bit disappointed about the quality of the pictures but in general it was a very good purchase.
