For the first time in art history, a monographic study analyzes and summarizes the extensive material of architecture and fine art of archaic Rome and the Etruscan and Latin city-states bordering it. Discovered by modern archeology throughout the 20th century, especially the second half of it, works of ancient Italian art change our understanding of the evolution of the artistic culture of antiquity. For the first time, the monograph introduces into circulation a large number of works of sculpture, painting and architecture discovered on the territory of Ancient Lacy.
