5.0 out of 5 stars The Red and the Black: Studies in Greek Pottery, November 3, 2006
This is a charming book. It is written in a fun, almost conversational style. It treats the history of how Greek pottery has been studied and viewed by Western scholarship. It contains anecdotes and stories that make the reader feel more connected with the art than do the usual dry, art-historical, descriptive books. Thank goodness it does not read like somebody's dissertation for a change. The author has a sense of humor and delightful candor about the subject, and the reader will still learn a good quantity of useful art historical information without the usual suffering of tedium so often encountered in books on this subject.
