This is a study of the works of art from early Greece that have long been presented as "illustrations to Homer," but that are argued here to be nothing of the kind. Early Greek artists showed no preference for Homeric subjects and, when their interests did coincide with Homer's, treated his account as, at best, one of the possible variants. Close descriptive analysis of texts and pictures and of the artists' aims, together with statistical evidence, provide the basis for the argument.

Review:
"...Homerists, as well as fine art historians, will want to take notice of this book. Philologists and undergraduates, as well as specialists, will find the work accessible, since the text is lucid..." Jonathan Burgess, Religious Studies Review

"...readers of Homer and the Artists...will find much of interest." Classical World

"The issue of a paperback edition alongside the expensive bound volume should help secure the wider readership among classicists and art historians and their students that the book deserves." AJA
