520 8  Introducing eight centuries of Greek sculpture, this 
       latest addition to The Met's compelling and widely 
       acclaimed 'How to Read' series traces this artistic 
       tradition from its early manifestations in the Geometric 
       period (ca. 900-700 BCE) through the groundbreaking 
       creativity of the Archaic and Classical periods to the 
       dramatic achievements of the Hellenistic Age (323-31 BCE).
       The 40 works of art featured represent a broad range of 
       objects and materials, both sacred and utilitarian, in 
       metal, marble, gold, ivory, and terracotta. Sculptures of 
       deities and architectural elements are joined by 
       depictions of athletes, animals, and performers, as well 
       as by funerary reliefs, perfume vases, and jewelry. The 
       accompanying text both provides insight into Greek art as 
       a whole and illuminates centuries of Greek life. Detailed 
       commentaries on each work and an overview of major themes 
       in Greek art offer a fascinating, object-focused 
       introduction to one of the most influential cultures in 
       Western civilization.
