''A Handbook of Greek Sculpture, Part 2'' is a book written by Ernest Arthur Gardner and first published in 1897. The book is a comprehensive guide to the art of Greek sculpture, covering its history, techniques, and styles. It is the second part of a two-part series, with the first part covering the Archaic and Early Classical periods and the second part covering the Late Classical and Hellenistic periods. The book begins with an overview of the historical and cultural context of Greek sculpture, including its relationship to religion, politics, and society. It then delves into the techniques and materials used by Greek sculptors, such as marble, bronze, and clay, and the various tools and methods they employed to create their works of art. The majority of the book is devoted to a detailed examination of the major styles and schools of Greek sculpture, including the Classical, Late Classical, and Hellenistic periods. Gardner provides a thorough analysis of the characteristics and themes of each period, as well as examples of notable works and their significance. Throughout the book, Gardner draws on his extensive knowledge of Greek history and culture to provide a rich and nuanced understanding of the art of Greek sculpture. He also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the works he describes. Overall, ''A Handbook of Greek Sculpture, Part 2'' is an essential resource for anyone interested in the art and history of ancient Greece, and a valuable addition to any library or collection of art books.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
