Abstract

Chapter 2 of the book "Greek Art Among the Romans" is presented. It explores Greek art under the Roman Cæsars. The decline of the arts in the cities of Greece is said to be visible in the coins. The almost colossal head of Marcus Agrippa, son-in-law of Augustus, stands in the Capitoline museum. During this period, a large round sepulchre of the Plautia family has been constructed.
