Spotlighting examples of classical Greek art together with recent findings in anthropology, social history, psychology, classics and classical archaeology, this book offers a multi-faceted look at women in myth, ritual and daily life in classical Greece. In this catalogue, written to accompany an international travelling exhibition organized by the Walters Art Gallery, Reeder turns to classical Greek marbles, bronzes, terracottas and vases to help illustrate the ways in which women were perceived and how they lived. The discussion is enhanced through interpretive essays written for the catalogue by a group of eminent classicists and historians.
