Vollmer, and Art Institute of Chicago curators Elinor Pearlstein and Christa C. Mayer Thurman." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction, by Christa C.

Cloth Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Light, pencil point-like indentation line on the dustjacket rear cover, elsewise a fine, bright, clean, tight copy sans other flaws. "The sumptuous illuminated manuscripts of Early Renaissance Florence have traditionally been overshadowed by the better-known monumental arts of the period. The Metropolitan Museum of Art seeks to redress the imbalance by mounting an exhibition of Florentine miniatures produced between 1300 and 1450 from collections in Europe and the United States. A selective group of bound manuscripts and single leaves from disassembled books is joined with panel paintings and works in perishable media - such as drawings embroideries, and reverse painting on glass - created by the same masters." PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED in full-color and black-and-white photographic reproductions of the aforementioned (many full page) with accompanying descriptive captions. 394 pages. NOTE: Due to the large size and heavy weight of the book, quite significant additional shipping cost will be requested/required for OU T-OF-U.S. shipment in accordance with country of destination.

Trade paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Book is in Very Good+ condition. Showcasing nearly seventy works, this special issue of Museum Studies explores the E. M. Bakwin Collection of Indonesian textiles, which entered the Art Institute of Chicago in 2002. Lavish illustrations and accessibly written essays introduce readers to a rich variety of ceremonial objects from hangings to sarongs, investigating the sources, motifs, and uses of one of Asia's most spectacular art forms.Often worn on special occasions or presented as a gift or offering, an Indonesian textile might illustrate its owner's ethnic identity or descent, give spiritual protection, display status, or strengthen alliances. Each piece in the E. M. Bakwin Collection can be read as an image of the local culture that produced it and is full of information on cosmic beliefs, venerated customs, technical expertise, social structures, and trade links. These splendid objects represent the finest examples of Indonesia's textile heritage and evoke the cultural complexity of this crossroads region, which was shaped by influences from China, India, Europe, and the Middle East.
