L'ambre, très apprécié dans l'Antiquité pour sa qualité décorative et ses vertus thérapeutiques ou apotropaïques, était souvent utilisé pour réaliser bijoux, amulettes et autres objets de prestige. Cette résine fossile est aujourd'hui l'objet d'un regain d'intérêt. Datant de l'époque orientalisante étrusque (vue siècle avant J-C) jusqu'à la haute période impériale romaine (11e siècle après J-C), le riche ensemble des figurines, bijoux et instrumenta gravés du musée du Louvre apporte de nouvelles données sur les réseaux méditerranéens de production et de circulation de la précieuse résine provenant du nord de l'Europe.

"This new translation brings to light the early days of scientific archaeology and the unearthing and study of Herculaneum and Pompeii as observed by the erudite and acerbic art historian Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717-1768). His Letter, published in German in 1762, displays his extensive knowledge of geology, ancient literature, and art while offering a scathing critique of the Spanish Bourbon excavations around the Bay of Naples and of the officials involved. He further discusses these topics in his equally controversial Report of 1764. The introduction describes the context in which these texts were written, identifies various politicians, academics, and collectors, and elucidates topics of particular interest to Winckelmann, from artifacts to local customs to the contents of ancient papyri. The illustrations, particularly those from the Bourbon publication--Le Antichità di Ercolano (1757-92)--illuminate how these monuments influenced contemporary perception of the ancient world."--
