About this product

Product Information

In 1764, Johann Joachim Winckelmann published a key early instance of art-historical thinking, his Geschichte der Kunst des Alterthums , here translated into English for the first time. Dazzled by the sensuous and plastic beauty of recently excavated artifacts - coins, engraved gems, vases, paintings, reliefs, and statues - Winckelmann synthesized the visual and written evidence then available into a systematic history of art in ancient Egypt, Persia, Etruria, Rome, and, above all, Greece. His passionate yet detailed inquiry investigates the idea of beauty over time and space, offering a chronological and descriptive account whose conceptual and historical paradigms have been reiterated and contested into the twentieth century. Alex Potts's introduction not only sketches the circumstances that shaped Winckelmann's project but also assesses this scholar's indelible influence on European intellectual life - for both modern art history and archaeology commence with Winckelmann.

    I had an outstanding experience with this seller! The item was exactly as described, and it arrived well-packaged and in perfect condition. The seller was incredibly responsive and helpful, answering all my questions promptly. The shipping was super fast, and I received the package within just a few days. A truly professional and reliable seller who goes above and beyond to provide exceptional service. I look forward to doing business with them again in the future. Thank you so much!

    El producto llegó pronto, pero no con la descripción, la tapa dura llegó con un Crack y un agujero, en la portada del libro, contacte al vendedor y fue muy cordial y amable, me devolvió un 30% del producto o me ofrecía la posibilidad de devolver el producto y recibir 100% del costo, no creí que mereciera la pena, ya que me costó muy muy barato. Recomiendo este vendedor por la profesionalidad y dedicación a sus clientes. Gracias por el buen trato.
