Description
Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langj�igem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Lediglich die Broschur ist minimal besto�n und berieben. Sonst ein sehr gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ only the brochure is minimally bumped and rubbed. Otherwise a very good and clean copy. - These papers are the proceedings of an international symposium held at the Getty Villa of the J. Paul Getty Museum in June 2006 in connection with the exhibition The Colors of Clay: Special Techniques in Athenian Vases. The themes of the exhibition�vases executed in special techniques, such as bilingual, coral- red gloss, outline, Kerch-style, white ground, and Six's technique, as well as examples with added clay and gilding, and plastic vases and additions�are the jumping-off points for these essays. Grouped into four sections, the topics are "Social Contexts for Athenian Vases in Special Techniques," "Conservation, Analysis, and Experimentation," "Artists, Workshops, and Production," and "Ancient Markets and Exchange." The twenty-three contributors, comprising scholars, conservators, and scientists from museums, universities, and laboratories throughout the United States and Europe, present a range of expertise and opinions. Volume editor Kenneth Lapatin is associate curator of antiquities at the J. Paul Getty Museum at the Villa.
