The Classical Antiquities : Fondation Gandur pour l'Art Hardback
Edited by Isabelle Tassignon
Hardback
Description
This stunning 2-volume set introduces the Geneva-based Fondation Gandur's collection of classical antiquities gathered over the past 40 years by founder Jean Claude Gandur.
These two volumes are complementary: The first volume investigates the subject of ancient religion by observing images of idols, goddesses, gods, and devotees, and through them related rituals and religious practices; while the second focuses on especially exquisite objects, luxurious trifles known since ancient times as deliciae.
These two volumes interact with each other, forming a whole that offers a sparkling view of Greek-Roman antiquity, from Italy to the Roman Orient of the Later Empire, through archaic Cyprus, classical Greece, and Hellenistic Egypt.
