Written with students in mind, this thoroughly illustrated, new textbook investigates the rich historical, cultural, and social contexts of 3,000 years of Greek art, from the Bronze Age through the Hellenistic period. Complementary chronological and thematic chapters alternate throughout, creating a balanced and accessible framework within which students may engage with art and history, and consider questions such as Who made this? Who paid for it? What purpose did this serve? Why was it important to the ancient Greeks?
Chronological chapters survey the appearance and development of key artistic genres and explore how artifacts and architecture of the time reflect these styles. Contextual chapters illustrate how a range of factors, such as the urban environment, gender, markets, and cross-cultural contact, influenced the development of art. The result is an engaging, accessible text offering students a greater understanding of the fabric of ancient Greek culture.
