Excursions into Greek and Roman Imagery Rystedt Eva
This book provides an enquiry into the distinguishing traits of Greek and Roman figural imagery. The images are explored within their contextual frameworks, paying attention to both functional purposes and pictorial traditions. A detailed analysis of a wide range of material conveys an understanding of the figural imagery of classical antiquity as a whole, counterbalancing studies conducted on single genres.Through in-depth studies of six major production categories-Greek painted pottery, Roman decorated walls, Greek gravestones, Roman sarcophagi, Greek and Roman official sculpture, and Greek and Roman coins-the reader gains insights into the making of classical figural imagery.
The bottom-up approach and the many genres of imagery discussed provide the basis for an extensive synthesis. Image-viewer relations offer a perspective that is maintained across the chapters.
