For more than half a century, The Research Archive for Ancient Sculpture at the Archaeological Institute of the University of Cologne has documented little-known collections of Greek and Roman sculptures through high-quality photographs and their publication in the Monumenta Artis Romanae series. The present volume is an addition to this series and presents the ancient sculptures of the Musée de Laon.

While carrying out fundamental archaeological research, it also seeks to contextualize the art works with particular attention to the provenances of the pieces.
