A HISTORY OF ROMAN ART, 2nd Edition, surveys the art of Rome and its
empire from the time of Romulus to the death of Constantine presented
in its historical, political, and social context, with coverage of
Etruscan and Greek art in Italy before the rise of Rome and of
Christian art and architecture during the Late Empire. Each of the 21
chapters combines a discussion of general issues and individual
monuments with a series of boxed essays on architectural terminology;
materials and techniques; religion and mythology; the cultural context
of works of art; the role of patrons in determining the character of
Roman monuments; and the problems that ancient artists and architects
faced and how they solved them.
