TREASURES OF THE SCYTHIAN KINGS
They were the fabled nomadic warriors of the Eurasian steppe. But for centuries their culture remained tantalisingly obscure – a result of their peripatetic lifestyle. In a major new study, the eminent archaeologist Barry Cunliffe pieces together the evidence about this most mysterious of ancient peoples.
THE TEMPLES AT ABU SIMBEL
Unearthed by the great showman Belzoni in the early 19th century, then moved wholesale in the later 20th century, the Great and Small Temples at Abu Simbel are among Egypt’s most extraordinary sights. Nigel Fletcher-Jones narrates the history, both ancient and modern, of the twin monuments to Rameses II and his wife.
WAITING FOR THE EMPEROR
Imperial ideology and Classical archaeology collided headlong during the reigns of Napoleon I and Napoleon III. Dalu Jones reveals how ambition and a genuine interest in the past helped to forge their link to Rome’s illustrious imperial past.
THE TENTH MUSE
A founding-member of the Royal Academy in London, Angelica Kauffman did not follow convention, but instead achieved success in her own right. Lucia Marchini charts the career of a groundbreaking portraitist and history painter.

THE TENTH MUSE
Angelica Kauffman was one of the most sought-after artists in 18th-century Europe. She cast aside convention to forge a remarkable career in London and Rome, not just as a portraitist, but also as a history painter, as Bettina Baumgärtel tells Lucia Marchini.
