POTTS, ALEX., Flesh and the Ideal: Winckelmann and the Origins of Art History...
USA:, Yale University Press,, 1994.. First edition. Cloth. Condition: Book: Fine in Fine DJ, pencil notes throughout the book. This book re-examines Wickelmann's canonical status as the so-called father of modern art history, showing how his systematic definitions of style and historical development can cast a new light on present-day understanding of these notions. The complexities of his new historical perspectives on the art of antiquity both prefigure and undermine the more strictly historicising views of Greek ideal put forward in the 19th century. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. 294.p. in total
