Anna Anguissola Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

Focusing on Pliny the Elder's insights, this book examines how his work, Natural History, serves as a vital source for understanding the figural arts of Classical antiquity. It delves into the construction of materials and artistic processes within Pliny's writings, while also reflecting on contemporary advancements in the study of Graeco-Roman art. Through this exploration, the book highlights the interplay between historical context and modern interpretations of ancient artistic practices.

Figural and non-figural supports are ubiquitous features of Roman sculpture in stone but have never before been the subject of a close investigation. This is the first full treatment of a fundamental subject and overturns previous assumptions about Roman visual traditions and the reception of Greek art.
