The book explores the evolution of Greek art during the Classical period, specifically from 480 to 320 BC. It delves into significant artistic achievements, influential figures, and the cultural context that shaped this transformative era. Through analysis of sculptures, pottery, and architecture, the narrative highlights the aesthetic ideals and innovations that defined Greek artistry, illustrating how these works reflect the values and beliefs of ancient Greek society.

This book consists of a comprehensive collection of ancient literary evidence on Roman art and artists, assembled together in translation and provided with linking passages to set the historical context. Its purpose is to make this evidence accessible to students who are not specialists in the classical languages or classical archaeology. The surviving evidence is limited in extent but extremely precious in quality. This volume makes virtually all of it available between one set of covers.
