Dionysos, Eros, Nike, Odysseus, and Zeus: the heroes and villains of ancient mythology make love, do battle, and plot revenge on vases from the 4th and 5th centuries B.C. Each of the 180 vases in this volume is examined in detail, with notes on provenance, publication history, and condition. Brief essays on the use of color in southern Italian vase-paintings, as well as a glossary, a concordance, and specialized indices provide useful information to the scholar and the generalist alike.
