OverviewRoman sculpture from the Cotswolds (principally Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire) forms one of the most consistent regional traditions of Roman Britain. These sculptors, working with the soft local limestone, displayed a considerable feeling for pattern and texture. Many of the pieces are well known and the best are among the most distinguished works of art from Roman Britain, but they have never before been discussed as a whole. This volume features detailed catalogue entries and over 300 illustrations, providing a full record of the material. An introductory essay sets the historical and stylistic contexts. Concluding the text, Dr Henig also covers the Roman sculpture from Devon and Cornwall.
