The Art of Antiquity: Piet de Jong and the Athenian Agora,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The archives of the American School excavations in the Athenian Agora contain a remarkable series of watercolors and drawings (well over 400) by Piet de Jong, one of the bestknown, most distinctive, and influential archaeological illustrators of the 20th century. They show landscapes, people, and, above all, objects recovered during many seasons of fieldwork at one of the longest continuously running archaeological projects in Greece. This volume brings these illustrations out of the storage drawers and assembles in color a representative sample of some of the finest of Piet de Jong's contributions. Along the way, the book tells the story of the Agora excavations and assesses their contribution to scholarship. It includes essays by 15 scholars currently working at the Agora, and surveys the entire span of the material they are studying, from Neolithic pottery to the Late Byzantine and postByzantine frescoes from the Church of Ayios Spyridon.Table of ContentsThe Art of Antiquity: Piet de Jong and the Athenian Agora (John Papadopoulos); Le style cest lhomme: Piet de Jong as Artist (Anne Hooton); Topography and Architecture (John Camp); Neolithic through Middle Helladic Pottery (Walter Gauss); The Mycenaean Era in the Athenian Agora (Jessica Langenbucher); The Athenian Agora from the End of the Bronze Age through the Protoattic Period (John Papadopoulos); Archaic and Classical Odds and Ends (John Papadopoulos, with Susanne Ebbinghaus and James Sickinger); Athenian BlackFigured and BlackGlazed Pottery (Kathleen Lynch); Attic RedFigured and WhiteGround Pottery (Kathleen Lynch); Bronzes and Bronze Sculpture (Carol Mattusch); Ivory and Terracotta Sculpture (Carol Lawton); Hellenistic Pottery (Susan Rotroff); Terracotta and Faience Figurines (Susan Rotroff and Margaret Rothman); Roman Pottery, Lamps, and Glass (John Papadopoulos and Marianne Stern); Roman Mosaics (Barbara Tsakirgis); The Byzantine and PostByzantine Pottery (Camilla MacKay); Late Byzantine and PostByzantine Frescoes from Ayios Spyridon (Camilla MacKay); The Art of Labeling: Piet de Jongs Signatures and Various Labels on Watercolors (John Papadopoulos).
