Originally published in 1912, this book contains the first half of the catalogue of the sculptures held in the collection of the Acropolis Museum in Athens. In this volume, Dickins lists the museum's assortment of archaic sculptures, thought to have been made before the razing of the Acropolis in 480 BC. The detailed text is illustrated with drawings of many of the sculptures listed, including the famous Peplos Kore, Kore 675 and the 'Mourning Athena' relief. This well-presented and thoroughly researched book will be of value to anyone with an interest in ancient Greek art, particularly art in the archaic style.
