For the mediaeval history of the Parthenon, see Laborde, Athenes
aux XV, XVIC, et XVIP Siicles (1854); Gregorovius,
Athen im Mittelalter (1889). Facsimiles of Carrey's drawings
are in the British Museum, and have been partially published
in the work of Laborde, Le Parthenon (Paris, 1848). They
are completely published by Omont, Athenes au X VIP siecle.
Dessins des Sculptures du Parthenon, attribue's a J. Carrey, etc.
(Paris, 1898) For the discussion of Carrey's supposed
authorship, see ibid., p. 4. For copies of the drawings of
the pediments, see also Antike Denkmater, I., pis. 6, 6a
(exhibited in the Elgin Room). Dalton's views of the Acropolis
were published in 1751, but the remains of Athens were little
known till the appearance of The Antiquities of Athens, by
James Stuart and Nicolas Revett. (London: vol. I., 1762;
vol. II., 1787; vol. III., 1794; vol. IV., 1816; vol. V., 1830).
A second edition, with additional matter, but having inferior
illustrations, was issued in 1825-1830. Many of the original
drawings, made at Athens by Pars in 1765, and incorporated
in the 2nd and 4th volumes of this work were presented
to the British Museum by the Society of Dilettanti. For his
drawings of the frieze, cf. p. 114. The official inquiry into
the proceedings of Lord Elgin is contained in the Seport of the
Select Committee of the House of Commons on the Earl of Elgin? s
