Description:
Myth Into Art is a study of Greek iconography, focusing on the depiction of myth on Greek painted pottery. Taking a comparative approach to narrative, Shapiro explores the different means by which poet and painter tell the same story. The book provides a clear, concise and lively interpretation of 30 of the best-known myths told in Homer, lyric poetry, and Attic tragedy, and focuses on the black- and red-figure vases of Athens and South Italy. With 130 illustrations in the text. Myth Into Art is an introduction both to mythology and to the use of visual sources in the study of Greek myth.
