Roman Art

by Nancy H. Ramage

"Fully revised and further enlarged, with more color illustrations and fresh topics, this is the fourth edition of an introduction to the painting, sculpture, architecture, and decorative arts of the Roman world. It covers the 1,300 years from the Etruscan forerunners of the Romans to the introduction of Christianity under the Emperor Constantine the Great. The new edition introduces such subjects as rescue excavations, art for private patrons, and erotic art. New features include a timeline of the major periods, events, and artworks; more family trees of the imperial dynasties; and a table of Roman gods and goddesses and their Greek equivalents."--BOOK JACKET.
