Details
This beautifully produced book is a real tour de force, providing a comprehensive overview to the art of the Greek world in its entirety from the Bronze Age to the Hellenistic era. Richard Neer takes an archaeological as well as art-historical approach, emphasising the breadth and diversity of Greek art and material culture and embracing what might be seen as low as well as high art. The book is arranged in a clear chronological narrative, and plentiful case studies offer an opportunity to explore the methods which can be employed in the analysis of ancient art and architecture, as well as to look at specific social, economic nad political contexts.
