About This Antiquarian
Book |
This Antiquarian LONG OUT OF PRINT auction catalogue lists and describes 580 Lots, of an amazing selection of Pre-Columbian, African, Classical, Near and Far Eastern Antiquities ! Included are -- vessels (pots, bowls, cylinder cups, storage containers, etc. -- many zoomorphic), cylinder seals; deity, Buddha and other deity, human and animal figures / sculptures; amulets, GOLD jewlery, tools, woven textiles, weapons, santos, erotica, votive and ancestral figures, masks, bas relief panels, ancient glass artifacts, among MANY others! Cultures / Countries of origin include -- more than half of this fine reference contains pre-Columbian and African items from -- Chancay, Mochica, Chavin, Tairona, Maya, Colima, Yaka, Dogon, Baule; Japan, India, Thai, dynastic Chinese, Navajo, Roman, Egyptian, and MORE!
WOWSERS! These awesome treasures, which came from distant civilizations and times have, in their sometimes very colorful abstract imaginative presentation, using a diversified array of materials and techniques, captured the basic essence of the subject depicted -- I wonder how they would have represented a computer?
If you think I get super-hyped and overly enthusistic about my online goodies, you are 100% correct! I try to make my item descriptions as exciting and informative as I myself find them, no more, no less -- these subjects have been my main hobbies for over 50 years -- I only wish I had more time for them at this point!
When I was a kid, I would have many file folders according to subject, filled with pics and clippings in them of many of these things -- now days, without being a geeky genius, one can do the same thing, way better, on a computer! If you have already begun your own personal computer interactive relational database of these highly artistic and creative artifacts of the past, you will most certainly find MANY new items to add to it in this reference, both in fine photos and descriptive details -- as well as their values, which is very important when you might find a treasure at that local country auction or yard sale -- it does happen! Lavishly illustrated ! Antiquarian Book in EXCELLENT+ Condition!! Return to |
