The Art and Archeology of Ancient Greece is an introductory-level
textbook for students with little or no background in ancient art.
Arranged chronologically in broad swathes of time, from the Bronze
and Iron Ages through the Geometric, Archaic, Classical, and
Hellenistic periods, and concluding with the Roman conquest of the
Greek world, the textbook focuses on Greek art but also
incorporates Near Eastern, Etruscan, and Roman objects. Judith M.
Barringer examines a variety of media, analyzing marble and bronze
sculpture, public architecture, and vase painting, as well as
coins, domestic architecture, mosaics, terracotta figurines and
reliefs, jewelry, and wall painting. This book adopts an approach
that considers objects and monuments within their cultural
contexts. * More than 500 illustrations, with over 400 in color and
13 maps, including specially commissioned photographs, maps, plans,
and reconstructions * Includes text boxes, chapter summaries and
timelines, and detailed glossary * Looks at Greek art from
perspectives of both art history and archaeology, giving students
an understanding of the historical and everyday context of art
objects
