New. 1891771329. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-FLAWLESS COPY-144 pp., 95 illus., 26 in color, 9 x 10 in. --Four distinguished authors explore the topography and architecture of the ancient city of Sardis, in western Turkey, and its graphic recording since the 18th century. The site and its Lydian, Persian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman finds have been studied for 45 years by the Sardis Expedition, cosponsored by the Harvard University Art Museums and Cornell University. The drawings here document architecture, excavations, and surveys: the oldest are hand-measured, precise pencil and ink renderings from the Age of Enlightenment; the newest were rendered using electronic and computerized technologies. --Crawford H. Greenewalt, Jr. (University of California, Berkeley) is the field director at Sardis. Nicholas D. Cahill (University of Wisconsin, Madison) is the senior excavator at Sardis. Philip T. Stinson (NYU) is the supervising architect at Sardis. Fikret K. Yegül (University of California, Santa Barbara) is the specialist for the Artemis Temple at Sardis. --with a bonus offer--
