CORPVS VASORVM ANTIQVORVM: United States of America, Fascicule 18 – The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Fascicule I presents a comprehensive scholarly catalog of Corinthian, Attic red- and black-figured, and South Italian vases in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) collection. This fascicule also includes rare pieces from other ancient cultures, featuring Etruscan, Mycenaean, Cypriote, and notable Tepe Sialk ware specimens. Many of the vases in this volume were gifted by William Randolph Hearst in 1950, with pieces previously part of prominent English and European collections. The cataloging and presentation of these vases began in the 1950s, involving extensive restoration to return each piece to a clean, authentic condition. This publication represents years of dedicated research and careful collaboration with LACMA staff and esteemed scholars, with invaluable contributions from experts such as T. B. L. Webster, A. D. Trendall, and D. A. Amyx, and final editorial guidance by Dietrich von Bothmer. The publication was made possible through generous grants from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation, the von Bothmer Publication Fund of the Archaeological Institute of America, and support from the University of California, Los Angeles. This fascicule is an essential resource for specialists in ancient ceramics, providing high-quality images, detailed drawings of graffiti by Jeanne Peppers, and rigorous documentation of each vase's artistic and historical significance, ensuring it stands as an enduring academic resource for the study of ancient art.

This title was originally published in 1977.
