"This book addresses itself to artists and to the amateurs of fine design, and attempts to render them a service by bringing together choice examples of Greek vase painting which hitherto have been accessible in no handy form at no moderate cost. It may also do something to redress an injustice of fame, for Euphronios, Hieron, and other masters of this, one of the most finely balanced arts of design and poetry ever struck out in decoration, can hardly be thought to have reached the full circle of their admirers, or the familiar honour that is their due"-- Preface.
