The Villanovan, Etruscan, and Hellenistic Collections in the Detroit Institute of Arts
Author: David Caccioli
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9047425774
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The Villanovan and Etruscan collections of the Detroit Institute of Arts not only represent an important source of Classical Antiquity in the United States, but also serve as a historical model of how such artifacts were acquired by large American museums from the late-nineteenth through mid-twentieth centuries. These collections provide museum visitors, scholars, and students with an indepth view into one of antiquity's most fascinating peoples, the Etruscans and their predecessors. The wide-ranging collections contain artifacts from every aspect of Etruscan life such as utilitarian tools and weapons, objects for personal adornment, votive statuettes, and cinerary urns to house the dead. One statuette, the Detroit Rider, is considered to be among the finest surviving examples of Etruscan small sculpture. The catalogue brings together all of these pieces for the first time with photographs and relevant bibliographic sources on their cultural and religious functions in antiquity.

Collection Diniacopoulos Au Québec
Author: John M. Fossey
Publisher: Concordia
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
When Olga and Vincent Diniacopoulos arrived in Montreal from Post-War Europe, they brought with them more than two thousand antiquities. Yet Canada's largest private collection, held since the 1960s at Université de Laval and now in the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, remained largely unknown and unstudied. In 2004, Concordia University - in conjunction with the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts - arranged for an exhibition, an international conference, and a publication devoted to the collection. Ten essays, seven in English and three in French, explore various aspects of a collection ranging from Greek pottery of the Late Bronze Age to ancient glass of Roman imperial date. Accompanied by a complete catalogue of all the Montreal pieces.
