Acropolis (English language edition) - Visiting its Museum and its Monuments (Paperback)

95 colour illustrations. The Athens Acropolis and its Museum constitute an integrated architectural and artistic unity, one of the most important in the history of global civilization. This informative and attractive guidebook is designed to be a useful travel companion; its descriptions and interpretative analyses help show the monuments in a new way, through an understanding of the historical, artistic and political events that contributed to their creation. Through the text and the illustrations we get to know the gods and heroes who were worshipped on the Acropolis, the leaders who envisaged the major projects, the artists who brought them to fruition, as well as the innovative ideas they applied, and the Athenian citizens who admired and enjoyed these achievements.
