Description
Etruscan Dress explores the development of Etruscan clothing from 8th to 5th century BCE, using evidence from actual garments, sculptures and artistic representations. Larissa Bonfante examines the influence of Near Eastern styles and their connections with Greek and Roman fashion.
By tracing the origins of each style, Bonfante provides a chronology of Etruscan relations with the Near East and ancient Greece. This updated paperback edition includes an expanded bibliographical essay discussing recent research and discoveries in the field.
