Beijing

Webb examines the full range of figural embellishment - from simple to complex, on large monuments as well as on obscure ones, and in major population centres as well as smaller cities, sanctuaries and isolated areas throughout the region. More than 130 illustrations of Hellenistic monuments - temples, altars, cult buildings, heroon, theatres, bouleteria, stoas, gymnasia and houses - and their sculptured adornment complement the author's descriptions and analyses.
