1 GABUCCI, ADA: PECCATORI, STEFANO & ZUFFI, STEFANO (EDITORS). Ancient Rome: Art, Architecture, And History.
Getty Publications, Los Angeles: 2002. s Softcover. Brand new book. 
Rome continues to be a solid, tangible, and monumental expression of a legend. It is the eternal city where all roads of the ancient world converged, and has been the model for the very concept of a universal empire through the millennia. Through art, architecture, and urban planning, the empire expanded with an exceptional synthesis of technology, politics, law, and propaganda, conquering Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Near East. Accompanied by masterpieces of architecture, sculpture and painting and the words of illustrious figures, Ancient Rome: Art, Architecture, and History follows the arc of the city and the civilization from its beginnings to its height and decline. Included are discussions of the emperor Augustus and the style we now call Augustan; the portraits and personalities of the Julio-Claudian dynasty; the ill-fated town of Pompeii and what its ruins have taught us about art and life in the Roman world; the architecture and planning of the metropolis, including the famous forums, arches, and baths, as well as the monumental architecture of the Colosseum; the art and architecture of the provinces of Europe and North Africa; and the fall of the Western Empire and the establishment of the Byzantine Empire as the heir of Rome. Ada Gabucci is the editor of the magisterial study The Colosseum, also from Getty Publications.

2 ZUFFI, STEFANO. Love And The Erotic In Art.
Getty Publications, Los Angeles: 2010. Guide to Imagery Series. s Softcover. Brand new book. 
Even in the Western world, which seems completely accustomed to the widespread appearance of risque images, an erotic painting from five hundred years ago can still manage to create a sensation. This book, the sixteenth title in the popular Guide to Imagery series, is a delightful romp through the portrayal of love and sexuality in artŅageŅold subjects depicted in all cultures. The volume surveys Western artworks more or less explicitly illustrating delicate or amorous subjects. The gamut of possibilities is vast, ranging from chaste tenderness to overwhelming frenzies of the senses, from Classical allusion to sexual fantasy. A series of general themes is presented, with a detailed reading of the significance and symbolic content of the individual works illustrating each theme. In the paintings of the past, the reader will encounter gestures, objects, places, and situations that seem familiar and that offer the traditional setting of "love scenes" from every epoch. The volume closes with a chapter highlighting some of the most famous couples of all time. Stefano Zuffi is the author of Gospel Figures in Art, European Art of the Fifteenth Century, and European Art of the Sixteenth Century.
