这本书介绍了八个世纪的希腊雕塑，是大都会博物馆引人注目且广受赞誉的《如何阅读》系列的新作品，追溯了这一艺术传统，从其在几何时期（约公元前900-700年）的早期表现，到古希腊和古典时期的突破性创造力，再到希腊化时代（公元前323-31年）的巨大成就。这40件艺术品代表了广泛的物品和材料，既有神圣的，也有实用的，包括金属、大理石、黄金、象牙和赤土。神灵和建筑元素的雕塑与运动员、动物和表演者的描绘，以及殡葬浮雕、香水瓶和珠宝一起。附带的文字既提供了对整个希腊艺术的洞察力，又照亮了几个世纪的希腊生活。对每件作品的详细评论和对希腊艺术主要主题的概述，为西方文明中最有影响力的文化之一提供了迷人的、以实物为中心的介绍。

Introducing eight centuries of Greek sculpture, this latest addition to The Met’s compelling and widely acclaimed How to Read series traces this artistic tradition from its early manifestations in the Geometric period (ca. 900–700 BCE) through the groundbreaking creativity of the Archaic and Classical periods to the dramatic achievements of the Hellenistic Age (323–31 BCE). The 40 works of art featured represent a broad range of objects and materials, both sacred and utilitarian, in metal, marble, gold, ivory, and terracotta. Sculptures of deities and architectural elements are joined by depictions of athletes, animals, and performers, as well as by funerary reliefs, perfume vases, and jewelry. The accompanying text both provides insight into Greek art as a whole and illuminates centuries of Greek life. Detailed commentaries on each work and an overview of major themes in Greek art offer a fascinating, object-focused introduction to one of the most influential cultures in Western civilization.
