Ebook: Hellenistic Sculpture II: The styles of ca. 200-100 B.C.

"In Hellenistic Sculpture II: The Styles of ca. 200-100 B.C., the second of Brunilde Sismondo Ridgway's three planned volumes on Hellenistic sculpture, she takes on the challenge of interpreting and dating the art of this complex and lively century." "Ridgway attempts to determine what can be securely considered to have been produced during the second century B.C., employing the same methodology she has used in her previous studies of all phases of Greek sculpture. In the course of her exploration, she critically scrutinizes most of the best-known pieces of Greek sculpture, ultimately revealing a tentative but plausible picture of the artistic trends of 200-100 B.C."
