Opis

The Late Mannerists were Athenian vase-painters working in the fifth-century BC. They specialized in shapes used during the symposium, and had a particular flair for story telling. Their unusual style of painting combines elements of the Late Archaic period with characteristics of the Classical period. This is a richly illustrated study of the workshop.

Recenzje

A perceptive and usefully European angle on the continuing largely British debate on the pros and cons of the work and legacy of Sir John Beazley ... thoughtful and logical presentation ... The illustrations are well chosen, elegant and practical ... those who do read it all will be richly rewarded.
