James 'Athenian' Stuart, 1713-1788

"The creation of the 'Greek style' and its pervasive impact in England and on the Continent during the third quarter of the eighteenth century were largely due to James Stuart's landmark multivolume publication, The Antiquities of Athens ... Stuart, subsequently known as 'Athenian' Stuart, went on to a highly influential career that spanned the fields of architecture, interior decoration, furnishing, sculpture, and metalwork."--Jacket.
