Book Description
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Acropolis Museum, Vol. 1: Archaic Sculpture This volume is devoted to sculpture, and therefore the architectural details at present in Room II are omitted as well as objects in terra-cotta. It is hoped that the second volume may contain the rest of the sculpture, the terra-cottas, and the architectural fragments. The order of the catalogue was at first arranged according to the position of the objects in the museum, but as extensive changes are contemplated there, I have thought it wiser to arrange the catalogue in numerical order, so that any object may be easily found in spite of any future alteration.
