Parthenon Sculptures

• Every purchase supports the British Museum
• The Parthenon sculptures in the British Museum are unrivalled examples of classical Greek art that have inspired sculptors, artists, poets and writers since their creation in the 5th century BC
• This book serves as a visual introduction to these magnificent sculptures
• The book showcases a series of specially taken new photographs of the different sculptural elements: pediments, metopes and frieze
• It captures the vitality of the sculptures in a group, an individual sculpture or an exquisite eye- catching detail, such as the mane of a horse, a human foot, the swish of drapery or a youthful head bowed in thought
