Book in GOOD condition Includes a hundred pages of 157 b&w plates. "Let it be said immediately that the erudition is spliced throughout with an elegance and wit which make this a particularly readable work of scholarship … judged as a whole, the book is a masterly survey of a field large enough to daunt the boldest scholar. The writing is stimulating, the footnotes a mine of information, the plates an excellent support to the text. In my opinion, it will rapidly become a classic work in the subject." - C R Dodwell, 'The Burlington Magazine'.
