Author: John Boardman
In this book, acclaimed archaeologist and art historian John Boardman explores Greek art as a foreign art transmitted to the non-Greeks of antiquity—peoples who weren’t necessarily able to judge the meaning of Greek art and who may have regarded the Greeks themselves with great hostility.
Boardman examines how and why the arts of the classical world traveled and to what effect, from Britain to China, from roughly the 8th century BCE to the early centuries CE.
