1 E.g. see M. Vickers and D. Gill, Artful Crafts: Ancient Greek Silverware and Pottery (1994) and their critique of connoisseurship and Beazleyism applied to Greek figure-painted ceramics; E. Marlowe, Shaky Ground: Context, Connoisseurship and the History of Roman Art (2013), similarly evaluates the loss of context among canonical objects in the study of Roman art and the resultant misapplication of methods (e.g. connoisseurship) from other art historical disciplines that sometimes misdirect inquiry and understanding of Roman art.
