6 THE “CUPBEARER” FRESCO 24

From an article by Sir A. J. Evans in the _Monthly Review_, March, 1901; by kind permission of Mr. John Murray. _See_ pp. 25 and 32

7 BULL’S HEAD. LIFE-SIZE RELIEF IN PAINTED STUCCO. CNOSSOS, CRETE 26

Painted from the facsimile in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, by Diana R. Wilson, by special permission. _See_ p. 25. The bull is a very frequent subject of artistic representation at Cnossos, where bullfighting seems to have been in vogue

8 THE LION GATE, MYCENÆ 30

From a photograph by the English Photo Co., Athens. Showing the sculpture and masonry of prehistoric Greece. _See_ p. 29

9 VAPHIO CUPS 32

Collotype plate, from the facsimiles in the British Museum, First Vase Room, Case B. Two gold cups found on Spartan territory. The design is in relief beaten up from the back. One shows the trapping of wild cattle, the other tame cattle going to pasture. The vessels are about the size of the modern teacup. _See_ p. 30

10 INLAID DAGGER-BLADES 34

Collotype plate, from the electrotypes in the British Museum, as Plate 9. They show the dress and weapons of Ægean folk. All but the blade is a restoration. _See_ p. 30

11 WARRIOR VASE, BLACK STEATITE (FIG. 1) 38

These vases were originally covered with gold-leaf. The subjects have not yet been completely explained. Probably the whole vase deals with athletic combats: running and leaping on the top zone, bullfighting on the second, and boxing on the third and fourth

FRAGMENT OF SILVER VASE (FIG. 2)

Collotype plate, from the facsimiles in the British Museum, as Plate 9. _See_ p. 38. The subject is the siege of a city. We observe that here, as in the previous illustrations, the warriors are represented as almost naked. They fight with slings and arrows and protect themselves with huge shields of wicker

12 THE “FRANÇOIS” VASE 42

Collotype plate, from a photograph by Alinari. _See_ pp. 43 and 57. A masterpiece of the earlier Attic school of vase-painting. It is signed by Ergotimus and Klitias, sixth century B.C. The scenes are mythological

13 HERMES KRIOPHOROS (THE LAMB-CARRIER) 66

From a terra-cotta relief, British Museum, Terra-cotta Room, Case C, B 486. A fine example of archaic relief-work, showing Hermes as the Arcadian shepherd’s god

Collotype plate, from a photograph by Hanfstaengl of the original at Munich

17 THE “STRANGFORD APOLLO” 74

From a photograph by Mansell & Co. of the original in the Archaic Room, British Museum. These three figures may indicate the progress of early Greek sculpture in expressing the human figure. There is little ground for calling these figures “Apollo.” They may equally well be human athletes

18 HEAD OF APOLLO, FROM THE WESTERN PEDIMENT, OLYMPIA 76

Collotype plate, from a photograph by the English Photo Co., Athens, of the marble at Olympia. _See_ p. 70

19 THE “DISCOBOLUS” OF MYRON (FIG. 1) 80

THE “DIADUMENUS” OF POLYCLEITUS (FIG. 2)

From a photograph by Mansell & Co. He is binding the victor’s garland round his forehead. This is, perhaps, the best of several copies made from the famous original, but it is much restored and probably not a very faithful copy

20 THE “DORYPHORUS” OF POLYCLEITUS (FIG. 1) 82

From a photograph by Brogi

THE “APOXYOMENUS” (FIG. 2)

From a photograph by Alinari. _See_ p. 81. The recent discovery of the Agias (Pl. 51) has proved that this is not, as was formerly supposed, a true example of the work of Lysippus

From a photograph by Mansell & Co. of a cast from the original at Delphi. _See_ p. 81

22 VIEW OF MODERN SPARTA, WITH MOUNT TAYGETUS 86

From a photograph by the English Photo Co., Athens. _See_ p. 87

23 RUNNING GIRL 90

Collotype plate, from a photograph by Anderson. Represents a competitor in the girls’ foot-race which took place at Olympia in honour of Hera. The original must have been in bronze, but this marble copy reproduces its archaic character. _See_ p. 83

24 ATHENA PROMACHOS, FROM A PANATHENAIC AMPHORA 94

Drawn from Vase B 140 in the Second Vase Room, British Museum (Case I). _See_ pp. 95 and 112

Collotype plate, from a photograph of the originals in the British Museum, Second Vase Room, Case 8, A 1430, and Case 16, B 29. The style of these vases may be distinguished by the purple tones of the colouring and the Oriental character of the designs. _See_ Vase Plate, Fig. 1, and p. 105

From a photograph by the English Photo Co., Athens. _See_ p. 107
