DESCRIPTION
The Arts of Antioch: Art Historical and Scientific Approaches to Roman Mosaics and a Catalogue of the
Worcester Art Museum Antioch Collection
This book features the first comprehensive interdisciplinary study of the mosaics from Antioch, one of the
four capitals of the Roman and Early Christian world. A follow-up to the critically acclaimed Antioch: The
Lost Ancient City by Christine Kondoleon, this volume includes the latest scholarly and scientific
discoveries that grew out of the Antioch exhibition. For the first time, the research of art historians and
archaeologists is combined with that of conservators and scientists to shed new light on mosaic and
glass workshops. The authors take an in-depth look at the Antioch excavations, which yielded a range of
mosaics, sculpture, and glass- and metalwork spanning four centuries. They also explore the
development of mosaic conservation in museums since the 1930s. Included are recent findings on
mosaic materials, artistic techniques, glassmaking technology, stone quarries, workshops, trade, and
patronage. An introduction by the director of the Worcester Art Museum outlines the history of the
museum's involvement with the excavations of Antioch, and gives insight into several personalities who
were key to the realization of the project. The catalogue section offers detailed information regarding the
archaeological context, art historical significance, and technical study of over 150 objects, including the
finest group of Roman and Early Byzantine mosaics in North America, and a chronological series of 106
coins from Antioch. With 400 photographs and illustrations, The Arts of Antioch provides a new basis for
future scientific and art historical study. The contributors to the book include Paula Artal-Isbrand
(Worcester Art Museum), Anna Gonosová(University of California, Irvine), Florent Heintz
(Antiquities Department, Sotheby's), Rebecca Molholt (Columbia University), Richard Newman (Museum
of Fine Arts, Boston), Antero Tammisto (Institutum Historicum Universitatis Helsingiensis), Cornelius
Vermeule III (Museum of Fine Arts, Boston), James A. Welu (Worcester Art Museum), Anne Leinster
Windham (Assumption College), and Mark T. Wypyski (Metropolitan Museum of Art).
