$a This is only a partial translation of Winckelmann's Geschichte der Kunst des Alterthums. The Advertisement states, 'The American translator of the following work published it under the title of "The History of Ancient Art," although it forms but one part of the work so entitled by the author. ... it has been though desirable to give the more specific and accurate title of "A History of Ancient Art among the Greeks" to the English edition of the work.' The plates show details of ancient Greek sculpture. This, Winckelmann's most influential work, had first been published in German in 1764. French translations appeared in 1766 and 1781, and an Italian translation in 1783. |
