Roman Art and Architecture

Roman Art and Architecture
Frederick A. Praeger | 1964 | ISBN: N/A | English | 256 pages | PDF | 40 MB


Sir Mortimer Wheeler discusses the many diverse qualities of Roman art in terms of its development within Italy and the Empire, but offers as well a perceptive and original account of the crosscurrents between Rome and the East. His history is enhanced by hundreds of imaginatively chosen reproductions, which have been specially selected to accompany each section of the text—brilliant and faithful photographs of Rome's great temples, palaces, circuses, viaducts, frescoes, and sculptures, and even of the Romans' daily utensils and pottery.
