The Castellani Fragments in the Villa Giulia, Volume 2: Atheian Black Figure (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788772886183)

The vast Castellani collection of ancient Greek pottery, now housed in the Villa Giulia Museum in Rome, has been studied by several scholars, notable Paolo Mingazzini, who published part of the collection. A great deal, however, particularly the fragments, remains unpublished. The aim of this volume is to make this important collection of Athenian Black Figure fragments available to all students of Greek pottery. Each piece is illustrated and described. The first volume (also available) dealt with cups while this volume focuses on closed vessels: amphorae, jugs, lekythoi, hydriaim, craters and dinoi.
