The second volume only of a three-volume set. "During this period, artistic production was stimulated by the encounter between Greece and Rome and fueled by the desire of the kings of Pergamon to emulate the past glories of fifth-century Athens. Statuary in relief and in the round, often at monumental scale, was created in a variety of styles. Ridgway attempts to determine what can be securely considered to have been produced during the second century B.C., employing the same methodology she has used in her previous studies of all phases of Greek sculpture." (dj) An uncommon volume.
