The Legacy of Homer:
Four Centuries of Art from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Paris

$65.00 Retail
$58.50 Friends Member price
hardcover, 384 pp., 125 color and 85 b/w illustrations
Emmanuel Schwartz, curator, École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Paris.
From its founding in 1648, the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture and its successor, the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, were devoted to the Greek model. Mythology and poetry, along with the study of sculpture, were the foundations of academic teaching there. As a result, Greek gods and heroes were reborn in innumerable works by pupils and teachers of the École. This lavishly illustrated book explores the impact of the poet Homer on four centuries of French artists through the lens of the École's superb collections of paintings, prints, and sculptures.
With contributions by George Steiner, Fellow of Churchill College at Cambridge University
Philippe Sénéchal, professor of history at the University of Amiens and illuminating texts by prominent French scholars and a preface by George Steiner on the reception of Homer in France, The Legacy of Homer examines the historic and artistic importance of the works housed in the École and pays homage to Homer, the great source that inspired them.
Recarving China's Past:
Art, Architecture, and Archaeology of the "Wu Family Shrines"

$75.00 Retail hardcover
$67.50 Friends Member price hardcover
$45.00 Retail softcover
$40.50 Friends Member price softcover
512 pages
By Cary Y. Liu, Michael Nylan, Anthony Barbieri-Low, and Michael Loewe.
The Wu Family Shrines, one of the most important cultural monuments of early China, comprise approximately fifty stone slabs from the so-called Wu cemetery in Shandong province. Depicting emperors and kings, heroic women, filial sons, and mythological subjects, these famous carved and engraved reliefs may have been intended to reflect such basic themes as loyalty to the emperor, filial piety, and wifely devotion; centuries later, they vividly bring to life the art, social conditions, and Confucian ideology of the Eastern Han.
This generously illustrated book examines the stone slabs and their rubbings as artifacts with a complex cultural history from the second century to the present, and addresses questions about the traditional identification of the structures as Han dynasty shrines of the Wu family. Written by a team of distinguished scholars in the fields of Chinese art and history, the book includes a novel examination of Han burial items in relation to burial belief, pictorial carvings, and funerary architecture.

Princeton University Art Museum’s collection of American drawings and watercolors is impressive in both scope and quality, providing a comprehensive overview of the nation’s artistic traditions.

Included are selections by such eminent artists as Benjamin West, Winslow Homer, Thomas Eakins, Mary Cassatt, Andrew Wyeth, Georgia O’Keeffe, Lee Bontecou, and Tom Wesselmann.
A group of outstanding works by Hudson River School and Ashcan artists also distinguishes the collection. Each of the selected drawings and watercolors is reproduced in full color and is accompanied by an in-depth catalogue entry. The book also features an introduction by John Wilmerding describing Princeton’s history of collecting art as well as an essay by Kathleen A. Foster on the historiography of American drawings and watercolors. A useful checklist of the Museum’s entire collection of American drawings and watercolors, selectively illustrated in color, concludes the book.
This beautiful and informative volume clearly demonstrates that the holdings of the Princeton University Art Museum represent an extraordinary resource for students, scholars, and those with a love of American art and art history.
The Centaur's Smile:
The Human Animal in Early Greek Art

$65.00 Retail hardcover
$58.50 Friends Member price hardcover
$40.00 Retail softcover
$36.00 Friends Member price softcover
By J. Michael Padgett with contributions by William A. P. Childs and Despoina Tsiafakis et al.
Human animals—centaurs, satyrs, sphinxes, sirens, and Gorgons—as well as other composite beings like Pan, Triton, Acheloos, and the Minotaur, are extremely common in Greek myth, literature, theater, and the visual arts. Understanding the phenomenon of combining human and animal elements into composite creatures is central to our knowledge of the Greek imagination. This landmark book is the first to investigate representations of these human animals in early Greek art (ca.750–450 B.C.). The Centaur’s Smile discusses the oriental antecedents of these fantastic creatures, examining the influence of Egyptian and Near Eastern models on the formation of Greek monsters in the Geometric and Archaic periods. Fully illustrated essays explore the nature and origin of horse men (centaurs and satyrs) and the broader range of Greek composite creatures, discussing their evolving forms and changing roles during this seminal period of Greek art. More than one hundred exquisite objects—many published for the first time and all beautifully reproduced in color—are described and analyzed in detail. Among the featured works are reliefs and statuettes in stone, bronze, and terra cotta; jewelry and metalwork in gold, silver, and electrum; engraved seal stones in rock crystal, jasper, and carnelian; and painted ceramic vases from Athens, Corinth, Rhodes, Miletos, Cyprus, and Etruria.

The Art of Structural Design: A Swiss Legacy

$55.00 Retail hardcover
$49.50 Friends Member price hardcover
$35.00 Retail softcover
$31.50 Friends Member price softcover
HardCover: 93 four-color illustrations & 152 duo-tone illustrations
By David P. Billington with a contribution by Jameson W. Doig
This handsome book brings together for the first time the outstanding work of four Swiss engineers and their teachers who form the most impressive group of structural artists in the twentieth century: Wilhelm Ritter (1847–1906), Robert Maillart (1872–1940), Othmar Ammann (1879–1965), Pierre Lardy (1902–1956), Heinz Isler (b. 1926), and Christian Menn (b. 1927). David P. Billington, Gordon Y.S. Wu Professor of Engineering in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Princeton University, pioneered the integration of the liberal arts into engineering education. He argues here that it is important to consider these men as artists, for aesthetics played a major role in their design philosophy. He focuses on the engineers’ artistic approach to the design and construction of bridges and thin shell roofs, and he discusses their impressive individual contributions to structural engineering.
Generously illustrated, this book features reproductions of many original drawings as well as archival material, paintings, three-dimensional models, and newly commissioned photographs. Included in this study are many of the designers’ most widely recognized and acclaimed projects, including the George Washington, Bayonne, Bronx-Whitestone, and Verrazano Narrows bridges by Ammann; the recently constructed Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge over the Charles River in Boston, the widest cable-stayed bridge in the United States, completed by Menn in 2002; the Schwandback, Salginatobel, and Vessy bridges in Switzerland by Maillart; and Isler’s graceful Heimberg Tennis Center and Grötzingen Outdoor Theater. Year 2003.
