Book Description
Excerpt from Ancient Marbles in Great Britain The object of the present work is to supply archaeologists and those interested in archaeology with more complete and accurate information than has hitherto been provided concerning the treasures of ancient sculpture, stored up in the galleries of Great Britain, the abundance and excellence of which appear to be but little known in detail, notwithstanding that they are admitted in general terms. In order to guard against erroneous expectations, it should be borne in mind that the title Ancient Marbles does not imply antique sculptures of every description, but only the relics of Greek and Roman origin which have been imported into Great Britain from classical soil. I have accordingly excluded Egyptian and Oriental art as well as the anglo-roman remains found in Great Britain. Whatever the book may contain not included within the limits of the above definition, must be looked at as an accessory which, I venture to hope, will at least not be troublesome to the reader. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Oxbow says: This book's author does not shy away from expressing her opinions on the destruction of ancient sites in Greece and her belief that the Elgin Marbles are best left in the care of the British Museum, or at least for the time being.
