Opis

The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus was one of the Seven Wonders of the World. This is the first complete catalogue of its friezes and other decorative reliefs. Detailed descriptions are illustrated by hundreds of previously unpublished photographs. Also discussed are the discovery of the Mausoleum and the controversy about who carved its friezes.

Recenzje

The genesis of this splendid, sober book might itself be a fascinating subject, building as it does on the foundations of two eminent classical art historians of a previous generation.
