Excerpt from Lions in Greek Art It is further to be noted that the sanity of Greek art avoids such monstrous forms as delight the Egyptian and the Assyrian. The composite beasts of the island gems. Disappear from art, leaving no trace2 behind. Them except the Chimaera3 whose origin is, according to ancient, authorities, Lycian. At any rate, Bel lerophon't slew it in Lycia, and only with Corinth5 of which he is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The monumental lion at the site of Amphipolis in northern Greece is one of the most illustrated sculptures in textbooks of ancient art. It is probably the burial monument of Laomedon, a general and close friend of Alexander the Great. Until the 1930s however, the remains of the lion were fragmentary and little known. This book, by a famous art historian, describes the re-erection of the monument by the French and American Schools in Athens, at a time when the gathering clouds of war gave new meaning to this symbol of Greek military prowess. It presents a full description of the 4th-century B.C. lion, its meaning, and its historical context.

This handsomely illustrated book offers a broad synthesis of Archaic Greek culture. Unlike other books dealing with the art and architecture of the Archaic period, it places these subjects in their historical, social, literary, and intellectual contexts. Origins and originality constitute a central theme, for during this period representational and narrative art, monumental sculpture and architecture, epic, lyric, and dramatic poetry, the city-state (polis), tyranny and early democracy, and natural philosophy were all born.
