Seller's Description:
VG (top corners bumped; otherwise clean. ) Gray paper boards, white & illus. dust jacket, 280 pp., many BW illus.; weighs 4.5 lbs. "Aspires to enhance the 'beauty' of ancient Greek sculpture, through choice works from museums in Greece, Europe and the United States of America. Brief descriptions and comments bring the reader into contact with the milieu--geographical, historical, social and religious--in which this art was created and which contributed to its development. The illustrations adopt a different, a selective approach, which consciously avoids the whole and focuses on details. Details that reveal particular facets of the sculptural creation and reflect the 'eye' of two exceptionally talented Greek photographers, Elias Eliadis and Sokratis Mavrommatis. Thus, this 'history' of ancient Greek sculpture functions as a visual quest whose goal is to breathe life into soulless museum exhibits." (p. 11) You'll notice the refreshing different in approach as soon as you open this book. A terrific and contemplative browser.
