'Swift suggests interesting ways in which the minor arts could play active roles in the creation of status and gender in the later Roman empire, paving the way for future work in this area.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review 'With this volume on Roman decorative habits, Ellen Swift offers an interesting, thoughtful and well-constructed survey of the social experience of design. ... Swift is engaging, thoughtful and persuasive throughout, and her strong writing skills make for a smooth and accessible read. The book is abundantly illustrated, and even though one may always regret the cost-effective reliance on black-and-white photography, Swift has also provided the reader with 18 well-chosen color plates in addition to black-and-whites with clear resolution.' Journal of Art Historiography
