The Poetics of Appearance in the Attic Korai
ISBN: 9780292742369 / Angielski / Miękka / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Some of the loveliest works of Archaic art were the Athenian korai--sculptures of beautiful young women presenting offerings to the goddess Athena that stood on the Acropolis. Sculpted in the sixth and early fifth centuries B.C., they served as votives until Persians sacked the citadel in 480/79 B.C. Subsequently, they were buried as a group and forgotten for nearly twenty-four centuries, until archaeologists excavated them in the 1880s. Today, they are among the treasures of the Acropolis Museum. Mary Stieber takes a fresh look at the Attic korai in this book. Challenging the...

ISBN: 9781409422617 / Angielski / Twarda / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
