Description

Presents Roman Art at the Art Institute of Chicago, the latest installment in the Art Institute's ongoing program of digital scholarly publishing. This catalogue reflects the museum's continued commitment to presenting new, rigorous research on diverse aspects of its world-renowned, encyclopedic collection, with a view to making this knowledge broadly accessible online. Building on the platform developed for the comprehensive, multipart project documenting the museum's exceptional Impressionist holdings, the Roman catalogue breaks new ground both in the study of the museum's ancient and Byzantine art and in its digital publications. 164 artworks are featured in this catalogue.
