Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an expertly crafted exploration of Lysippos, a sculptor who lived in ancient Greece and is hailed as the final master in the triumvirate of the greatest artists of the fourth century B.C. Lysippos brought the Classical period of Greek art into the Hellenistic period and was favored by Alexander the Great. The author places Lysippos in the broader context of Greek history and culture, shedding light on how the artist's innovations and masterpieces contributed to the transition from religious monumental art to historical realism. The book analyzes Lysippos's works, including iconic depictions of gods and heroes like Poseidon and Hercules, and examines their artistic significance within the evolution of Greek sculpture. Through a detailed examination of Lysippos's surviving works and ancient literary sources, the book offers a nuanced understanding of his artistic style, subject matter, and profound influence on the art of his time.
