Synopsis: |
This book is based on the 1993 Myers Memorial Lecture in which John Boardman examined the influences of the Classical world on the arts of the East: Central Asia, Northern India and Persia. Following in the wake of Alexander's conquests, Classical motifs and mythology enter into the repertoire of Eastern artists - in sculpture, painting, silverwork and engraving - creating traditions that continued for many years. |
