The legacies of ancient Greece have had a profound influence on the development of our modern world. This fascinating new book explores the importance of art and architecture in the world's first classical civilization, charting the ancient cities from their first foundations to the creation of their towering temples. The first half of the book analyses the rise of Greek architecture from its Minoan roots to the creation of Greece's most perfect temple, the Parthenon. Beautiful photographs and illustrations throw light on the intricacies of the ancient Greek building styles and techniques, revealing the practical methods involved in crafting iconic buildings like the Acropolis. Discover the histories of the ancient Greek cities, from the ethereal beauty of Athens and the commercial centre of Corinth to the sacred sanctuary of Delphi. Every aspect of Grecian art is revealed, from the dawn of classicism in 480BC to the delights of the Hellenistic Golden age in 30BC. The second part of the book covers the skill of ancient Greek sculptors and artists, from Polyclitus to Lysippus, and looks in detail at the techniques of the vase painters and mosaic makers, the art of the Bronze Age and the work of the 4th-century masters. An expert, insightful and accessible text is accompanied by over 250 photographs, fine-art illustrations, diagrams and maps, making this book an indispensable resource for both the specialist and general reader.
