Hardcover. Quarto. Hardcover. Evergreen boards; gilt lettering. Black dj with sculptural image. 367 pp. with 55 color plates and additional color and bw images/maps. Heavy at 6 pounds and will require a bit of extra postage. For the general public and specialists alike, the Hellenistic period (32331 BC) and its diverse artistic…legacy remain underexplored and not well understood. Yet it was a time when artists throughout the Mediterranean developed new forms, dynamic compositions, and graphic realism to meet new expressive goals, particularly in the realm of portraiture. Rare survivors from antiquity, large bronze statues are today often displayed in isolation, decontextualized as masterpieces of ancient art. Power and Pathos gathers together significant examples of bronze sculpture in order to highlight their varying styles, techniques, contexts, functions, and histories. As the first comprehensive volume on large-scale Hellenistic bronze statuary, this book includes groundbreaking archaeological, art-historical, and scientific essays offering new approaches to understanding ancient production and correctly identifying these remarkable pieces. Designed to become the standard reference for decades to come, the book emphasizes the unique role of bronze both as a medium of prestige and artistic innovation and as a material exceptionally suited for reproduction. Power and Pathos was published on the occasion of an exhibition on view at Palazzo Strozzi in Florence from March 14 to June 21, 2015; at the J. Paul Getty Museum from July 20 through November 1, 2015; and at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, from December 6, 2015, through March 20, 2016. Included is a section containing the alloy compositions of select sculptures. VG. Jacket has a half inch closed tear to the front bottom right corner and some light rubbing/shelfwear. Small stamp on front end paper stating withdrawn from a research library, otherwise interior is clean and unmarked. Pictures are from a previous copy sold from our inventory.
