Included are well known masterpieces and less familiar recent acquisitions (over ninety from the past two decades), as well as some works that have long languished in the Museum’s basement. Following a brief foreword (…) Picón presents a twenty-page illustrated history of the classical collections, tracing their growth from (…) 1870 (…) to (…) 2006. (…) The meat of the book is in seven chapters, or rather sections, of photographs of individual artefacts. These are arranged chronologically (…). The high quality photographs of objects are accompanied by brief ‘tombstone’-style captions (i.e., catalogue number, short title, culture, period, date, material, credit line, and accession number). Unsigned ‘Notes on the Works of Art’ follow the nearly four-hundred pages of photos. (…) The quality and range of this very attractive volume (…) will recommend it to anyone interested in the art of the ancient world.’(KENNETH LAPATIN in The Classical World, 2009, pp.199-200). |
