Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and often overlooked practice of color in ancient Greek sculpture. The author, a curator of classical antiquities, presents compelling evidence that the Greeks did not simply carve their statues in white marble, but rather painted them in a variety of vibrant hues. By drawing upon historical accounts, surviving fragments of colored sculpture, and the rich artistic tradition of Greek terra-cotta figurines, the author reconstructs the ancient color palettes, exploring the reasons behind the choices, and how these colors contributed to the overall aesthetic of the art. The book goes beyond simple documentation, using these insights to recreate the coloring of two iconic Greek sculptures: the Venus Genetrix and the Hermes of Praxiteles. The author's examination of the painted replicas, and their comparison to the original white marble, reveals the impact of color on the perception of form and how it contributed to the unique beauty of these sculptures. Through a careful and meticulous analysis, the book redefines our understanding of ancient Greek art, offering a compelling case for a more dynamic and colorful interpretation of their creations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

"Tombs Temples And Ancient Art: When Joseph Lindon Smith went out to Egypt as a young artist in 1898, archaeology was beginning to uncover some of the fabled treasures of an ancient land. For the next half-century, he devoted himself to the great "finds" as they were excavated from the encroaching sands, depicting them in countless paintings for the leading museums of the world. He became the friend of Flinder Petrie, the greatest of late nineteenth and early twentieth century Egyptologists, and the co-worker of the best-known archaeologists down to 1950; he explored and painted at Petra, Persepolis, Ur Palmyra, and Baalbek; he also did work with Sylvanus Griswold Morley in the ancient Maya centers of America, and painted in the Far East. His personal account of what transpired under his eyes and of the chronology and relations of ancient art over a wide area is at once exciting narrative and important history. The many illustrations chosen from his painting provide visual accompaniment to his story of classical civilizations and reveal the literal quality of his own art, which has in notable instances preserved for us the likeness of things that have since crumbled or faded on exposure to light and air after being buried for centuries. Tombs, Temples, And Ancient Art gains strength for its informality, for while the initiated will discover facts and interpretations of high importance to science, all readers will recognize in it the work of a man alive to adventure."--WorldCat.
