Title: As Witnessed by Images. The Trojan War Tradition in Greek and Etruscan Art.
Description: John Hopkins University Press, Baltimore, 2008. 230p. Richly ills. (B&W photographs). Cloth wrps. Nice copy. Like new. 'Once out of the theoretical forest, L. shows his merit as an art historian by giving lucid and always interesting exegeses of major pieces of Archaic Art. (...) The flaw in this fine work of art historical criticism is L.'s confusion of 'myth' and literature. (...) As explication of early scenes of heroic myth in Greek art, the book is an exemplary contribution of wonderful interrest, though some of the illustrations are dark and obscure.' (BARRY P. POWELL in The Classical Review, 2009, pp.586-87). Gew/weight: up to 1 Kg.
