Sinopsis

The Elgin and Phigaleian Marbles V1 is a book written by Thomas Coates and published in 1833. It is a comprehensive study of the ancient Greek sculptures known as the Elgin Marbles and the Phigaleian Marbles. These sculptures were originally part of the Parthenon temple in Athens, Greece, but were removed and transported to England in the early 19th century by Lord Elgin. The book provides a detailed account of the history of the sculptures, including their creation, their original location, and their removal from Greece. Coates also describes the process of transporting the sculptures to England and their eventual display in the British Museum. In addition to the historical context, the book also provides a detailed analysis of the sculptures themselves. Coates examines the style, technique, and symbolism of each piece, and provides insights into the cultural significance of the sculptures in ancient Greece. Overall, the Elgin and Phigaleian Marbles V1 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of ancient Greek art and the Parthenon sculptures in particular. It provides a wealth of information and analysis, and is an important contribution to the study of classical art and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
