Parthenon Frieze
J. Neils

Jenifer Neils's study provides an in-depth examination of the frieze which decodes its visual language, but also analyzes its conception and design, style and content, and impact on the visual arts over time. Unique in its wide-ranging approach, The Parthenon Frieze also brings ethical reasoning to bear on the issue of repatriation as part of the ongoing debate on the Elgin Marbles. The accompanying CD-Rom contains a virtual reality Macromedia Director(TM) film of the complete frieze, based on the plaster casts in the Skupturhalle in Basel, Switzerland. Developed by Rachel Rosenzweig of the Department of Greek and Roman Art of the Cleveland Museum of Art, the casts are arranged in the film in conformity with Neils's reconstruction and enable the user to view them in succession, as if walking around the Parthenon. The CD-Rom requires a computer running in either Mac OS 8.0.1 or later, or Windows 95 or later.* Uses other art forms (vases, sculptures, etc.) to elucidate the frieze * Discusses impact of frieze on later art (e.g. Renaissance, Impressionism) * Relates frieze to cultural property debate (Elgin Marbles)
