Description
No marks or inscriptions. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased. 208pp. The new passion for travel by the wealthy at the end of the 18th century meant that the art, literature and philosophy of Ancient Greece could be experienced first-hand rather than being transmitted by intermediaries, which had happened until then. This study reflects Greece as perceived, reflected and shaped by artists and others of the period. Very well illustrated by contemporary paintings.
