The Greek art, a supreme realization of the Greek spirit, is the subject of the new monumental series by Ekdotiki Athenon. In fifteen luxurious volumes, the artistic creation of Hellenism is presented comprehensively, in a harmonious combination of vivid text and excellent illustration, from its dawn to the present day.

Each volume, a monograph of a specific expression of Greek art, follows its evolutionary path through works representative of its phases and tendencies, in which the artistic as well as the socio-political developments of their time have been recorded.

Particular emphasis has been placed on the stylistic negotiation and aesthetic assessment of the selected works that inductively intertwine and define the unparalleled identity of Greek art.
