Looking at Greek Vases
Overview
This is a collection of essays by distinguished scholars that will introduce the student or museum-goer to the study of Greek vases.

It offers instead a series of suggestions on how to read the often complex images presented by Greek vases, and also explains how the vases were made and distributed. The volume is fully illustrated throughout.
