The Derveni Krater

Klappentext
This Beautifully Illustrated book represents the first full publication of the most elaborate metal vessel from the ancient world yet discovered. Found in an undisturbed Macedonian tomb of the late 4th century BC, the volute krater is a tour de force of highly sophisticated methods of bronze working. An unusual program of iconography informs every area of the vessel. The krater is placed in its Macedonian archaeological and art historical context.
