This title presents a lavishly illustrated and fascinating
exploration of the art, architecture, and archaeology of one of the
world's best preserved Roman cities. The remains of the ancient
city of Pompeii, frozen in time following the tragic eruption of
Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79, have provided archaeologists and
historians with invaluable evidence into the daily life of a city
at the height of the Roman Empire. "Secrets of Pompeii" is a
superbly illustrated volume that takes a fascinating look at how
ancient Romans interacted in their public squares and marketplaces,
how they worshipped, decorated their homes, and spent their leisure
time - at the theatre, in the gyms, and in the baths and brothels.
Featuring full-colour photographs of architectural remains and
exquisite details from a range of ancient artworks, including wall
paintings, sculpture, mosaics, and carved reliefs, this book offers
an unparalleled glimpse into a lost world.
