This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Casts, Marbles, Bronzes, Etc This frieze, in low relief, ran around the top of the inner faces of the colonnade and outer wall of the cella of the temple, yet within and below the roof, and 39 feet above the pavement. As the entablature above the outer columns descended 4 feet 9 inches below the lower edge of the frieze as it was placed on the wall, the frieze could only receive its light diffused between the columns and reflected upwards from the pavement of the colonnade. Owing to this circumstance, as well as to the peculiar position Of the spectator when looking at' the frieze, standing within the columns, the artist was forced to keep his relief very flat, so that it only rises inches from the background, and at the highest point 2% inches; moreover, it is owing to these circumstances that the relief was kept lowest in the lower parts of the frieze and highest in the upper parts, where even sometimes the background is sunk to gain a bolder relief. The frieze was over 522 feet in length, running around the four sides of the temple. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Greek Bronze Statuary written by Carol C. Mattusch and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freestanding bronze statuary was the primary mode of artistic expression in classical Greece, yet it was not until the nineteenth century that any original large statues of that period were unearthed. Although ancient literature has preserved information about the most famous Greek sculptors who worked in bronze, our perception of the art has been limited by the small number of extant originals from the sixth and fifth centuries B.C. there remain fewer than ten large cast bronze statues, a like number of bronze heads, an assortment of fragments, and some clay molds for casting. Carol Mattusch enriches our knowledge of this beloved but elusive art form in a comprehensive study of the style and techniques of bronze statuary during the Archaic (6th century B.C.) and Classical (5th century B.C.) periods.
Download or read book Greek Large scale Bronze Statuary written by Kosmas A. Dafas and published by University of London Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new study of Greek large-scale bronze statuary of the late Archaic and Classical periods. It examines the discovery, origin, style, date, artistic attribution, identification, and interpretation of the surviving bronzes, and focuses in particular on their technical features and casting techniques. It contains over 170 plates of photographs and drawings to illustrate its discussion. It also places the development of the casting techniques in connection with the stylistic evolution in Greek free-standing sculpture. During the Classical period, artists preferred bronze to marble when creating their contrapposto figures. Indisputably, bronze gave particular freedom to artists in creating three-dimensional figures. In addition, the evolution in style encouraged the development of the uses of bronze to serve the new needs and tendencies in sculpture during the late Archaic and especially the Classical period. Through the examination of how technical matters affect style, this book presents fresh interpretations of these important monuments of Greek art and offers a new approach in the field of Greek free-standing bronze sculpture.

Book excerpt: The study of bronzes from Greco-Roman Egypt offers a wide spectrum of possibilities for researchers in Classical Archaeology and Egyptology alike, but the complexity of many interdisciplinary topics can only be well served through specialized investigations of limited scope. The bronze portrait sculptures of Ptolemy II offer an ideal point of departure for such investigation, since it was during that king's rule that court artists consciously created art forms that fused the style, subject matter and iconography of the artistic heritage of their native subjects with their own Greek traditions. In a time of relative peace, now able to reap the material rewards of the Oriental conquests of Alexander's army, the new Ptolemaic regime fused Greco-Macedonian social and political structures into the established, ancient native infrastructure and guided it to a thriving, productive society.
