(Frank Bigelow) 1853 1920 Tarbell, Frank Bigelow A History of Greek Art With an Introductory Chapter on Art in Egypt and Mesopotamia Produced by Robert Rowe, Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. "A History of Greek Art" by F. B. Tarbell is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. This publication aims to explore the beauty and significance of Greek art, emphasizing critical artistic developments rather than explicitly focusing on historical timelines. It establishes a framework for understanding Greek art's place within the broader context of civilization, providing visual exemplars and analysis to facilitate appreciation. The opening portion of the work introduces the reader to the foundational artistic concepts of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, setting the stage for a subsequent exploration of Greek art. It discusses how art evolved in these regions over millennia, highlighting notable monuments and artistic techniques while acknowledging the intervals of both vitality and stagnation. Through comparison with Greek art, the introduction begins an inquiry into how early art forms influenced later creativity, accentuating the uniqueness of Greek artistic expression that emerged following the influences from older civilizations.
