The Lion Gate at Mycenae is an icon, a piece of art more than 3300 years old, representing the glory of Mycenaean Greece. Preserved in situ, it has passed through time and circumstance, witnessing its own civilisation fail and many others flourishing since. This volume traces 33 casts, some no longer existing, and tells their stories.

Si le XVIIIe siècle est généralement qualifié de « Siècle des Lumières », cette période se caractérise également par un véritable « retour à l'antique » au sein des différents États européens. Cet engouement, conforté par de nombreuses découvertes archéologiques dont les premières fouilles à Herculanum et à Pompéi (1738 et 1748), se manifeste...
