Some pencil notes and marginalia (Jenifer Neils). Some edgewear with laminate lifting along lower edge of rear wrap. Faint creasing. ; This book challenges the widely held view that Greek pottery vases were objects of great value in antiquity, commissioned by rich patrons from the greatest artists of the day. Instead, they are shown to have been simply low cost versions of tableware originally made in silver and gold. Vickers and Gill demonstrates how Greek pottery first came to be regarded as a high value commodity in the eighteenth century thanks to clever, if not fraudulent, sales techniques. They explore the ways in which work in gold and silver influenced painted pottery, and examine the primary sources, both literary and epigraphic, to find what materials the ancients did consider to be important. ; 0.58 x 9.67 x 7.46 Inches; 254 pages

Welcome to the Cyclades islands, where the brilliant sun-drenched buildings and whitewashed streets are home to a fascinating feline community. Surrounded by the vibrant colors of the Mediterranean, the cats of Greece pass the breezy afternoons prone in sleepy bliss. No creature has honed the art of the nap as masterfully as the cat, and here they achieve new heights in sublime relaxation. Curled in snuggly heaps, stretched across stairs and pathways, reclined in precarious nonchalance on cliff-side walls and rooftops, the cats in this book give themselves entirely to the dreamy pleasures of sun worship. 142 p. of wonderful photographs - a delightful gift book for fans of felines!

I d.C. fino alle redazioni tardobizantine.
