When life (in a global pandemic) imitates art . . .

Textiles have been made and used by every culture throughout history. However diverse - whether an Egyptian mummy wrapping, a Turkish carpet, Italian velvet, American quilt, or a Scottish kilt - all textiles have basic elements in common. This guide deals with the fundamental terms, materials, and techniques used to create textiles.

This guide aims to help readers recognize the legendary characters of classical antiquity in art. The characters are described in entries summarizing their stories, special attributes, and the ways in which artists have depicted them. Each entry is illustrated with reproductions of artworks.

Offers a detailed overview of the greatest archaeological sites and discoveries from ancient Greece - with contributions from both those who have excavated the sites and scholars who have spent a lifetime studying the monuments.
