Book Description

Excerpt from An Illustrated Dictionary of Words Used in Art and Archaeology The greek and roman antiquities, which are the principal part of M. Bosc's work, have been in this volume reduced to the smallest possible compass: the Dictionaries of Dr. Smith and Rich must be referred to by those who require fuller definitions upon this subject, which would of itself fill ten such books as the present.
