●内容简介——

大英博物馆的藏品是世界上精美、丰富的藏品之一，涵盖了从史前时代到现代的全球古今文化。这本全新增订版收录了许多新近收购的藏品和新发现，如毕加索令人惊叹的沃拉德套房和引人入胜的约克谷维京囤积物，并展示了从整个博物馆精选出的 250 多件精美、重要的藏品。每件藏品都有自己的精彩故事，并配有醒目的全彩插图。

从沃伦杯到丢勒的犀牛，从刘易斯棋子到阿兹特克绿松石大蛇和盖耶-安德森猫，大英博物馆的标志性物品在这里以一种令人兴奋和易于理解的全新方式呈现，突出了创造每一件瑰丽物品的人的精湛工艺和独创性。这些作品根据跨文化主题（如统治者、神兽、服饰和人形）分为不同的部分，由此产生的并列关系为这些千差万别的杰作提供了引人入胜的新见解。

The British Museum’s collection is one of the world’s finest and broadest, ranging from prehistoric times to the present in ancient and modern cultures around the globe. This new and updated edition includes many recent acquisitions and new discoveries, such as Picasso’s stunning Vollard Suite and the intriguing Vale of York Viking hoard, and showcases a selection of more than 250 of the most beautiful and important objects drawn from across the Museum. Each object is presented with its own fascinating story and is strikingly illustrated in full colour.

From the Warren Cup to Dürer’s Rhinoceros, the Lewis Chessmen to the Aztec turquoise serpent and the Gayer-Anderson Cat, the iconic objects of the British Museum are presented here in an exciting and accessible new way, highlighting the superb craftsmanship and ingenuity of those who created each of these splendid pieces. Grouped into sections based on cross-cultural themes, such as rulers, mythical beasts, dress and the human form, the resulting juxtapositions offer intriguing new insights into these widely varied masterpieces.
