John F. Kenfield III
Associate Professor
Greek & Roman Art
Ph.D., Princeton University
Biographical Information:
Professor Kenfield's area of interest is
ancient Greek art. Though his publications deal with
material ranging from the Geometric through the Middle
Byzantine cultural phases, his interests of late have
centered on architectural sculpture in terra cotta produced
in the Greek colonies in southern Italy and Sicily. The most
recent among these publications include "High Classical and
High Baroque in the Architectural Terra Cottas of
Morgantina," Hesperia, suppl. XXVII (Princeton,
1994): 275-81 and "Technical Variety in the Archaic
Architectural Terra Cottas of Morgantina," Deliciae
Fictiles II (Amsterdam, 1997): 115-20. Morgantina
Studies VI: The Architectural Terra Cottas (Princeton
University Press) is due to appear in fall 1999 or spring
2000.
Forthcoming Publications:
Morgantina Studies VI: The Architectural
Terra Cottas, Princeton University Press, forthcoming

Antefix in Houston" Deliciae Fictiles III: Proceedings of
the Third International Conference on Italic Architectural
Terra Cottas = Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome
