The Illustrated Dictionary of Art and Archaeology contains definitions of thousands of terms and more than 700 illustrations devoted to a broad base of subject matter under the generally- inclusive heading of Art and Archaeology. Included in this definitive work are terms used in architecture and in such related subjects as pottery, costume, furniture, armor, heraldry, weaving, ornament, jewelry, music, and ecclesiastical ritual. Needlework, ivories, goldsmithery, and pigments are also extensively treated, as are Greek, Roman, and Christian antiquities. All of the compilations that went into the entire work were drawn from leading authorities in each of the special subject branches
